FOREWORD 

Dear 1901 : 

Ten years ago, when at our Decennial Reunion, we reached on Sun- 
day night high tide in unity of spirit and fellowship, we separated with 
the feeling that the utmost we might hope to achieve would be to 
reach again that inspiration of purpose and comradeship which we 
there enjoyed. 

The past ten years have seen our hopes more than realized. That 
high tide of Princeton spirit has been passed again and again. Who 
can forget our Class Dinner at our Fifteenth? Or that Mid-Winter 
Dinner during the War when we paid tribute to Cuth Piatt? Or that 
meeting at our Victory Reunion when we launched our Memorial for 
our two gold star men? And who can say that in our Dinner last 
June we did not reach greater heights of sentiment and affection for 
Princeton and 1901 than on any other occasion? 

1901 has assumed, as ten years ago it promised to assume, a place 
of leadership among Princeton's most famous classes. It is no coinci- 
dence that 1901 has among its number two University Trustees, Walter 
Hope and John McWilliams, and the Executive Secretary of the Uni- 
versity, Alex. Smith. Our achievements of the past ten years, which 
are instanced in the completion of our gift of an entry of Patton Hall ; 
in the giving of the 1901 Reunion Trophy cup which we have won at 
our loth, 15th and 20th Reunion;, in the institution of Alumni Sing- 
ing at Commencement; in the annual presentation of the 1901 Medal 
to that member of the Senior Class chosen by his classmates as the 
man who had done the most in his Class for Princeton ; in the response 
we made to our country's call during the War; in the adoption, by the 
Endowment Fund Committee at our insistence, of the Class as the unit 
best fitted to reach all Princeton men ; in the example we gave the other 
classes, which resulted in the hottest sort of a competition and in such 
a high percentage of subscribers as well as a greatly increased aggre- 
'gate amount, aside from our own substantial gift of over $180,000; 
are matters upon which we can look back with satisfaction. Not satis- 
faction in a prideful sense, but as a gauge by which we may measure 
our deepening affection for Princeton, and as pace-making contribu- 
tions which have acted to stimulate the other member classes of our 
Princeton family to a more active interest in family affairs. 

To what end do these things lead, if not to a greater endeavor for 
Princeton ! At our Class Meeting last June, we again resolved that we 
would show the way by undertaking a campaign to continue the an- 



nual payments of our Endowment Fund subscriptions until our 
Twenty-fifth Reunion, a procedure which, if followed — and it will be 
followed — by all the classes, will result in increasing the Fund by over 
three million dollars. And there will be other notable matters for us 
to initiate before our Twenty-fifth. 

But enough of the prospect. In the retrospect herewith submitted 
you will find some account of your activities and those of your class- 
mates. And if your life history in tabloid form is not correctly told, 
do not rashly condemn ye editor without first examining your own 
conscience to determine whether you ever correctly apprised him of 
that important fact which has been omitted or misstated. 

In so far as has been possible what each man did during the period 
of the War has been set forth. The excessive modesty of a large 
proportion of the Class however, has prevented the obtaining of any 
information regarding the services which these men undoubtedly per- 
formed. Hence, when you find no note with regard to a man's war 
record you must estimate from your knowledge of the man what his 
record must have been. 

The contributions of Bartholomew, Spaulding Frazer, Janeway and 
Whitman, which appear herein, and the critical suggestions and as- 
sistance of Walter Hope and others, not only have lightened the labor 
of preparing this volume, but will greatly add to the enjoyment with 
which you will receive it. 

Faithfully yours, 
Clarence D. Kerr. 
December, 1921.

"POOR MISTER MCADOO 
Poor Mister McAdoo ! 
Think of the jobs he's hitched up to — 
The Treasury, the Railroad crew, 
The Income Tax and then a few. 
Each week they hand him something new, 
To tax his time and temper too. 
He has to know when loans are due. 
What source to get his billions through, 
What fund to pass each dollar to, 
Which tax is what, and who is who ; 
What bonds to sell and what renew. 
Which 'trust' to coax, and which to sue, 
He stretches out each day to two. 
To do the things he has to do. 
The job would flounder me or you — 
But it's a cinch for McAdoo !"

89th Division, U. S. Army, but let Karl tell his own story as he wrote it from 
Schweich, Germany, in January 1919. 

"1901 has arrived in Germany and is conducting herself in accordance with 
her high standard, and when you consider that Huddy occupied Germany 
years before Pershing and I thouglit of it you may know how high the 
standard is. I am with a Missouri and Kansas outfit and haven't discovered 
any other Princeton men. However, in those pre-historic days when you 
were young and attended Sunday School you remember hearing about 'the 
little leaven,' etc. 

"Possibly this occupation of Germany reads like one of these flower 
strewing, 'welcome to our city' stunts, but let me tell the world that when 
you have hiked your shoes out from under you over northern France, 
through Belgium, Luxembourg, and various provinces of Deutschland, you 
know you have been on something besides a pleasure jaunt. It has been some 
hike, and I wasn't any bloomin' Colonel riding on a hawse, either. I hiked! 
and as the Colonel remarked — he uses very religious language at times — 'It 
was a hell of a hike.' 

"I am with the 356th Inf., 89th Division — not one of your S. O. S. Paris 
and Vice-ing outfits, but a real 'honest to goodness damned if they didn't, 
fighting outfit,' and here let me give you a little glimpse into the psychology 
of the conquering American soldat. You doubtless read of how the troops 
received the news of the armistice with tremendous cheers, etc.? Well, 
here is what I experienced. We had crossed the Meuse in the face of direct 
artillery and machine gun fire the night of the lOth and morning of nth 
and were in the town of Autreville (the farthest advance of the allied troops) 
when the news came and the firing ceased. I didn't hear a single cheer, only 
this, 'Ain't this silence hell?' 'When do you think we'll go home?' Do you 
get the beauty of it, old chap? The job was done, nothing to get excited 
about — simply wondering when he could 'get his feet under mother's table' 
once more. Anyway, it is some little scrapping army that Uncle Sam sent 
across, and me, O, my, how it does want to get home ! But, O, la ! la ! how 
I run on. Halt! Cease Firing!"

Edward Cuthbert Piatt, Jr., when the War broke out, was European 
Controller of the Western Electric Company. Because of his closer 
view of what was at stake, he saw what his and our country's duty was 
long before America at large awakened to the situation. He sought 
to enlist in England but was refused because he was an American 
citizen. In the latter part of 191 5, hearing that it was possible to enlist 
in the Canadian Army, he resigned from his position with the Western 
Electric Company, returned to America, and early in 1916 enlisted 
in the Canadian Army. There he won a commission as Lieutenant, and 
finally reached France with the 24th Battalion (Victoria Rifles) of the 
Canadian Expeditionary Force in August, 191 7. 

During the fall of 1917, Cuthbert's Battalion participated in the 
British drive to gain possession of the Passchendaele Ridge, northeast 
of Ypres, Belgium. A part of the ridge was taken as the result of 
extremely severe fighting, but the Boche kept the territory captured 
from them under a series of very heavy bombardments. At the begin- 
ning of one of these bombardments, Cuthbert's men were in the trenches, 
while he was with his company commander in a dugout. When the 
shelling began, he started out, and to the warning of his superior offi- 
cer to wait until the shelling quieted down, he replied, "I must be with 
my boys.'' So he went out into the trench with his men and had 
been with them but a short time when he was instantly killed by a shell. 
As it was impossible to bring his body out, his men buried him where 
he fell. That spot in Flanders, where loving hands and sorrowing 
hearts laid him to rest, remains unknown. 

He was much loved by his men and his brother officers. He was 
constantly without thought of self, doing things for his men, looking 
after their comfort and welfare, and doing everything in his power to 
keep up their morale. He knew the personal history of all the men 
in his platoon, about their homes, and their families. His Colonel 
wrote: "He was, indeed, a most gallant officer and was loved by his 
men ... an excellent officer, a man that knew no fear, and ever placed 
his duty before everything else." 

The minute adopted by the Class on January 26, 1918, is but an 
inadequate expression of our pride in, and love and sorrow for him: 

"We, the Class of 1901, desire to record our great sorrow in the loss 
of Edward Cuthbert Piatt, Jr. He anticipated by more than a year the 
great duty which his country has now recognized, and has given his

life for us just as truly as if he had served in our armies. His solici- 
tude for the comfort and welfare of his men and his last words in 
going into danger and death — "I must be with my boys" — are all 
indicative of his fine, clean, courageous spirit which we loved and 
knew. We were proud of him in his life, and in his death he is prov- 
ing and will continue to prove a lasting inspiration to us who were 
fortunately his classmates and to those also to whom his example has 
become known.'' 

His family has received a memorial from the British Government, 
here reproduced, the reverse of which bears the following inscription 
and the King's signature : 

Buckingham Palace. 



I join with my grateful people in sending 
you this memorial of a brave life given for 
others in the Great War. 

(Signed) George R. I.

It must have been pleasant to know him in his boyhood. The imagi- 
nation easily pictures that sensitive, blithe spirit in its first contacts 
with the world, here and in Europe — handsomely fastidious, quickly 
responsive to beauty both natural and moral, precociously witty, 
though even then, we are told, only at the expense of ignobility. It 
would seem that he did not have to attain by experience to admirable 
ideals, but was born with them. And doubtless that exquisite tact which 
distinguished him in later years was also part of his heritage, to add 
to his youth still another premature charm. 

Most of us came to know him when, after his schooling at Andover, 
and his sojourn at Harvard, he appeared in Princeton. For some of us 
this was an advent as if from another world — a place at once whimsi- 
cal and wise, whose inhabitants were sworn to a propaganda of fine 
intellectual joyousness. Certainly we felt that he was dififerent from 
us. Most of us never quite understood him. And sometimes, indeed, 
he could not help being surprised at hmiself. 

We had to thank his acting in the Triangle Club for many a shout 
of laughter, his writings in the Tiger for many an astonished chuckle. 
Above all, we owed to his unpremeditated, habitual speech the shock 
from wit of a sort new to us, so quaint was its mingling of absurdity 
and sense. 

Those who in after years visited his home at Princeton, are indebted 
to him for some of the pleasantest hours of their lives. That house 
was a new sort of Abbey of Theleme ; permeated with a placid cheeri- 
ness, an invariable good-fellowship. 

And maybe the happiest days of his own life were spent in that house. 
For above all places where he had been happy he loved Princeton. 

He loved her gay aspects at Commencement-time, the bright clouds 
that dappled her autumn vistas, the white peace of her winters. In 
the Nassau Club he was fond of sitting at night before the log fire, 
where it seemed as if, outside the ruddy circle, the shades of old, 
jolly Princetonians in stocks and clubbed hair must be pressing in, 
lured by the peals of laughter. Then, too soon to suit the others, he 
would say good-night. Sometimes he would walk homeward slowly, 
the twinkle gone from his eyes, as he contemplated the pale towers 
rising through the moonlight like the vision of an imperishable ideal. 

We might speak much of his journalistic and editorial work and of 
his writings, but brilliant as he was in all of these fields, his com- 
radeship, his friendly consideration and the joy he brought to living

filled our friendship with him so full that we scarce had time to remem- 
ber that this sympathetic, generous and chivalrous friend of ours had 
made a very great success on the staff of the New York Sun, was for 
many years the editor of Ainslee's magazine, and had published a num- 
ber of novels and many very excellent short stories. "The King's 
Club," "The Judgment of Jane," "La Zingara," "The Golden Idiot," 
"The Lemon Seed," "Faun" and "With Eyes for No Woman" revealed 
to many part of that rich endowment which he freely gave to us as 
friends. 

His later writings are filled with pen-pictures of Long Island Sound. 
The sea gleams in the sunshine ; the wind bends the island trees, and 
dusk descends upon the shore agleam with the window-lights of pleas- 
ant homes. 

His own house was now there, perched close to the water above its 
rocks and garden. 

At Darien he was shaping in his mind some of the writing that was 
to occupy his full maturity, when America entered the war. 

From the first he was eager for action. He sought to enlist by 
applying for service in France with the Marines. His physical frailty 
barred him from such satisfaction of his restiveness, and he went to 
Washington to join the Foreign Division of the Committee on Public 
Information. 

In this work, he had to do, in part, with the representatives of small 
oppressed races. To those people, accustomed to being confronted, at 
home, by arrogant bureaucrats, that tactful kindliness of his was the 
revelation of a new spirit in authority. His quick sympathy so touched 
their hearts that they will long recall with gratitude this true friend 
of their aspirations, who collaborated with them when their nations 
were being lifted up toward freedom. 

These new successes led to his being chosen to conduct the mission 
of Italian editors through the country. 

Of course, under different management that journey from coast to 
coast might have had far diflferent effects. The impression of America 
that the visitors should carry home depended in great part on the 
nature of their most personal host. One sees that this trip might 
easily have resulted in a fiasco. 

As it was, it became the frolic of a lot of grown-up children. The 
Italians learned to expect more pleasure from their guide than from 
the extraordinary sights to which he led them. They fell to mimicking 
his drollery, were never tired of roaring at his burlesque speeches in 
ridiculous Italian, wanted to carry his overcoat, take him back to Italy, 
have him decorated by their Government. 

In short, they, too, fell completely under his spell. 

On the return trip, at Niagara Falls, he took a bad cold, but had no 
time or inclination to go to bed. Never strong, exhausted by that long 
and complicated journey of which he had borne the burden, he now

lived on nervous force. He was like a soldier who feels himself 
wounded, but will not give in to his weakness before carrying to its 
conclusion the whole duty assigned to him. When at last this duty 
was triumphantly finished, his wound had become a mortal one. 

He went back to his house on the Sound to die for his country. 

On his sickbed, as he failed bodily, all his rich spiritual qualities be- 
came more evident. His bravery was constant for, though he knew his 
fate, he was silent on that point, and always cheerful. His gentleness 
did not leave him, nor his humor. Near the end, losing contact with 
what we call reality, there issued from his lips, as it seemed, the con- 
centrated essence of the wit of his whole life — a poignant verbal bril- 
liancy that lasted hour after hour. 

He passed away on the forenoon of October 15th, 19 18. 

It was a day of keen sunshine and great winds. The gulls circled 
between shining clouds and sea. The gusts caught up and scattered 
to the foam the gay petals of the garden. Every natural thing seemed 
to be in joyous movement. A sense of happy change was in the air, a 
new vigor, a promise of something keener and more glitteringly beau- 
tiful. He departed amid the sparkle of the sea, and the purity of space, 
to meet the substance lying behind these promises.

The Rules of the Graduate Council adopted in May, 1920, provide : 
"7. The Alumni Directory shall contain a list of all non-graduates 

under the classes with which they were matriculated, except when a 

non-graduate 

(a) wishes to be listed with another class as a member of 
which he has at any time been enrolled as an undergraduate ; 

(b) wishes to be taken off the class roll because of subse- 
quent affiliations with another university or for any other 
reason ; or 

(c) is, in the opinion of the class secretary, so unrespon- 
sive in interest as to have abandoned his association with the 
class." 

Under the provisions of section 7(b) Faithorn, Gulick and Swift 
have been placed on the Inactive List, while the remainder have been 
placed on that list as provided for in section 7(c), since they have 
shown no evidence in recent years of a desire to be identified with 
1901. The Secretary recognizes a possible exception in the case of 
Poindexter, who in 1917 left Nashville for parts unknown and whom 
diligent inquiry has been unable to trace. 

Of these men Faithorn, P. C. Hudson, C. D. Jones, Reichner, Swift, 
Tennant and Wilkes had not been carried on our Class Roll since grad- 
uation, or at least since prior to our Triennial. Their names were 
restored to the Roll in 191 5 by the then Secretary of the University 
after they had apparently lost all interest in Princeton or 1901. It is, 
of course, to be understood that any of these men can be restored to 
the Active List on his own motion at any time.

THE FIFTEENTH REUNION 

(By Frank L. Janewav.) 

June 9-13, 1916 

Our platform is Preparedness and our ticket is simply this : 

Preparer-in-chicf — Everett L. Crawford of New York. 
Staff — Hope, Kerr, Yuengling, Conrow, Whitman, Monks, 
Bruyere, Dickinson, Black, Huyler, Vondermuhll, Kinne. 

One would think that this crowd had been prepared in the Boy Scout 
movement under Jake Shaffer. *'BE PREPARED." For they cer- 
tainly prepared for us, prepared everything to the slightest detail. No 
Napoleonic policy of leaving anything to the inspiration of the moment! 
This committee was positively Teutonic in thoroughness. 

When we got to Princeton on Friday, June 9, 191 6, for a celebration 
of the fifteenth anniversary of our graduation, there was a house in 
readiness — the Bachelors' Club at the foot of University Place — with 
George Yuengling doing the curator-of-grounds-and-buildings-business, 
and also driving madly about town in a six-cylinder car of huge propor- 
tions, which fitted George much as Jap Crane's shoes would. And 
the house was just fit for us — with a big dining room in which we had 
excellent meals served to us by the University Dining Hall, and a porch 
on which we could sit and chat and watch it rain; also sundry other 
appurtenances making for our comfort. Then there was adjacent to 
the house the tent prepared for us by the artistic hand of Wilford Con- 
row and the strong arm of Witherbee Black. Whether it was due to 
that half course in aesthetics in senior year, with which Professor Ray- 
mond introduced a half course by Henry van Dyke on English Prose 
writers of the nineteenth century, the course in which John Brewer 
galloped the whole way from Aix to Ghent along with the professor 
who read us Mr. Browning's poem with accentuated rhythm; or tq 
more recent studies at the Ecole des Beaux Arts (which is more likely) 
— at any rate we had a tent which was a thing of beauty and a joy for- 
ever. Think of a reunion tent having any suggestions of beauty in it ! 
Wilford & Wib did it — with green lattice work around the walls and 
strips of orange bunting adorning the ceiling, radiating from each pole 
out to the apses like an arctic or antarctic sunrise. Potted plants, 
sheltering palms, etc., surrounded Smylie Kinne's friends of Voss's 
Band when they dispensed sweet and stirring music from the "stage." 
It certainly was a step forward in the uplift movement of model hous-

ing for reunions. Outside the tent, screened off from the rude gaze of 
thirsty men, was the sanctum dedicated with conscientious neutraHty 
to both Bacchus and Bryan, a spring from whose hidden depths flowed 
both beer, grape juice and White Rock. 

Nor had this committee forgotten that at a reunion some of the 
class at least are such creatures of habit that they have to go to bed once 
in every twenty-four hours. To be sure it was a mere formality with 
some of us during the sojourn at Princeton. But that was not Pete 
Bruyere's fault. He had the chore-ful job of preparing the Hill dor- 
mitory for our occupancy, and assigning us to rooms and beds. Oh, you 
beds ! We will not soon forget how we settled down among the springs ; 
those springs which should have been under us and lo ! were around us. 
Beside this inconvenience add the disturbance incident to roistering 
gangs seeking their rooms, hastening to get asleep before the daylight 
made it difficult^ — and the fact that some of us had beds in rooms with 
such other snoring artists as C. D. Kerr — little wonder if our slum- 
bers were not deep. But nevertheless that was no fault of Bruyere. 
To him our thanks and praises. 

Even Mellen Matthews and Steve Whitman had prepared something 
new for us to sing. Mellen prepared the music and Steve the words. 
It was a march written specially for the 1901 Ouindecennial. Smylie 
Kinne had rehearsed the band on it before they came. The first night 
in the tent he gave out the slips with instructions. "The band will 
play the music and you fellows are to follow the words on the slips," 
declaimed Kinne, "then we shall sing the words with the band, while 
Mellen leads us." ''That's fair enough," said Doc Derr. And it was 
so. Before our party was over this tune had gotten a tight hold on us 
and we were whistling and singing it continually. 

"1901" REUNION MARCHING SONG 

Stand ! what's the band that can play that ? 

Hark ! To the bark of the Ti-ger-sis-boom-ah — 

Grand ! Give a hand ! you would say that 

They went away in Thirteen, Fourteen, Fifteen, Sixteen. 

They must belong to a live year ! 

Boys, to give noise such a ring ! 

One-year, or three-year, or five-year ! 

Wrong ! Hear the song that they sing. 

Chorus 
Naugh-ty One Naugh-ty One. 
Let us pass, we're the class full of fun. 
Full of rep and pep and worces-ter-shire. 
Of punch and lunch and gin-ger beer. 

119 



Naugh-ty One, Naugh-ty One. 
Give us room, we have gloom on the run. 
You get action when you hear 
Naugh-ty One, Naugh-ty One, Naugh-ty One, 
Naugh-ty One ! 

Also they prepared a thermometer for the attendance. It was a 
plank standing some nine feet high, with numbered peg-holes in the 
middle and a peg. Every time a new man came some official pulled the 
peg and put it one hole higher. By the time Tuesday noon came we 
had to bore extra holes. The committee slipped up only once in its 
preparedness — it prepared only i8o holes, and we needed 183. 

Then came Saturday. The weather was still chilly and drizzling. 
Yes, it rained hard for awhile in the morning and a few of the gloom- 
spreaders and crepe-hangers predicted no game this afternoon. All 
the while the recruits kept arriving, so that there were about 170 when 
we paraded. And again we were given a preparation — our white 
flannel coats with 1901 in orange and black figures on the pocket — and 
bamboo canes. Every man wore light trousers and a hatband with 
"1901" on it, and altogether we looked like a distinguished body of 
gentlemen. Well! why shouldn't we? The stalwart huskies like 
Gardner, Yates, Mattis, Hamilton and McLanahan bore the banners. 
Two American flags led the procession. With Voss's brasses sounding 
out the notes of Mellen's march we paraded through the mud to Nassau 
Street, to the steps of Old North, and there had our picture shot. 
Thence to the steps of the School of Science, where we posed for a 
panorama of ourselves, a proof of which appears hereafter — and be- 
hold the ubiquitous Crawford appearing on both ends of the same 
picture. Thence to the front campus into the parade, to the game. 
It was a picturesque pageant. One advantage of getting older is that 
we get in sooner and can see the later classes still parading before us 
as we are established in the better seats. The Class of 1906, dressed 
all of them as Uncle Sams with some tiny Uncle Sams of the second 
generation toddling in front ranks, made a big hit. 

As for the game, — first we offered it to Yale, though Yale urged us 
to by some severe hitting, and at the end of the fourth inning we were 
zero and Yale was five. Then gradually the Yale pitchers weakened 
and finally they insisted on our winning by hitting our batters and 
forcing in runs with bases on balls. So the game ended 7-5 in Prince- 
ton's favor. After this there w^as a delirious celebration on the field, 
with classes marching and countermarching to the music of half a 
dozen bands, each playing a different tune. It made a great spectacle 
from the grandstands, so our wives said, a perfect riot of color as the 
different costumes intermingled in the mass.

That night we had a merry party under Wilford's canopy. Lyn 
Dickinson was master-of-ceremonies, and was a good one. President 
Hibben and Dean West came down and gave us a word of greeting. 
So did "Tarn" Johnson of Cleveland, recently elected Alumni Trus- 
tee. There were many impromptu contributors to the evening's en- 
tertainment. Net Poe was present and sang for us his famous chef- 
d'oeuvre — "Blige the Lady." By special endeavors we were favored by 
the presence of our old friend A. Guyot Cameron, '86, who in his 
course in French literature used to lecture to us to our delight and 
inspiration on selected subjects from the Encyclopaedia Brittanica. 
Guyot was glad to see us — so he said — and side-stepping shiftily from 
one side of the stage to the other, expressing himself through all four 
Hmbs, he exclaimed, "Gentlemen, didn't I tel-1-1 you? Didn't I rub 
it in? The French people! whom so many called decadent, passe, 
dilletante, effete ! Didn't I tell you they were true and courageous and 
noble, and loyal, and brave, and enduring and strong? Haven't they 
proved it — such gallantry ! such devotion ! such self-sacrifice pour la 
patrie! Didn't I tel-1-1 you?" And if Guyot was glad to see us, we 
were certainly glad to see and hear him. And so the evening went on, 
but all agreed that chief among the offerings we must list Charles G. 
Meinken's immortal recital of his masterpiece, entitled, "Hush, 
Darling." 

Sunday morning found us still chilly, for the sun refused to come 
out, and those who came to swelter remained to shiver. Sam Ham- 
ilton and some others had repaired to Gulick's and bought sweaters in 
which they lived until the thaw set in on Monday. The 1901 Academy 
of Medicine went into executive session and held a clinic over Dr. 
Samuel Dodd. While the doctors were disagreeing, Sam slipped his 
keeper and when located, was entrenched behind a row of steins in the 
tent, and held the position the entire day against all efforts to dislodge 
him. [Fightings without and beers within — that was Sam.] Some 
students of the class went to the Baccalaureate exercises, others to the 
golf links. Toward evening the company reassembled and after sup- 
per repaired to the tent for a class meeting. But here let Spaulding 
Frazer take up the tale of that memorable evening. 

SUNDAY EVENING AND THE CLASS ELECTION 

(By Spaulding Frazer) 

We had all become so used to permanent officers that few realized 
how important this meeting was — elections had become mere matters 
of form. But with that wonderful loyalty to itself for which 1901 
is justly famous and of which some passing mention was made in 
bursts of class eloquence from time to time — the class attended in 
full strength at the tent. It was well for the organization — I cannot 



use the word machine — that it had its full strength in the field for the 
elections were to prove — But let us tell the tale. 

Class opinion is still divided whether Walter wanted to be president 
and needed C. D. or whether C. D. wanted to be secretary and had to 
get Walter a job, but be that as it may, the meeting had scarcely been 
called to order by the about-to-be-ex-president, Jimmie Jamieson, when 
Walter was suddenly acclaimed president and Jimmie, with very 
good grace be it said, surrendered the class stein to him who was to 
wield it during his unnatural life. Rapping with his stein for order, 
the acclaimed president — some still contend he never was elected — 
said in effect that he appreciated the honor but was tired of working 
for the fun of it and didn't want the job. Then tactfully anticipat- 
ing the protests which he knew courtesy would demand, he said, 
"Nevertheless, never the less,'"holding his hand up in imperiously ad- 
monitory manner to preserve silence — "nevertheless upon the express 
condition that all parliamentary practice be for this once abandoned and 
I without abandoning the chair — for,'' he added parenthetically, *'if I 
abandon the chair, Heaven — I would use a stronger word except for 
the feelings of Janeway, one of my chief supporters — Heaven only 
knows if ril ever get it again — and I be permitted without abandoning 
the chair to place in nomination for secretary a man than whom, etc., 
without whom I, etc., and with whom I, etc., to wit, Clarence Kerr, 
and the class elects him as it is in duty bound, etc., then and in that 
event 'becoming forensic in style' and only in that event will I take 
your damned job and release Jasper Crane from his promise to put 
through a motion to give me a loving cup." That was indeed a chal- 
lenge. Was C. D. too to be elected by acclamation or would one bold 
enough be found to champion the cause of freedom. "I nominate," 
cried Hope in stentor tones, interpreting the cheers of his adherents 
as assent, "Clarence Kerr to fill the office so long and ably filled by 
myself and move the nominations be closed." Alarum. 

But who is yon figure springing light-footed to the very center of 
the rear-most table, now crying with husky voice, "Mr. Chairman," 
now pounding vigorously with his stick upon Swain's well-known 
North Carolina pine* (of which our commodious tables were con- 
structed), to command attention. 'Tis the Gay Lord of Indiana. In 
sooth a champion and a doughty, has entered the lists.' 

"Mr. Chairman," as the tumult in part subsided, "Mr. Chairman, 
the steam-roller seems to be working pretty damned well." (The 
face of the president blanched at this unexpected attack and a voice 
in the crowd was heard "Walter looks like the White Hope"). "From 
the wave-kissed shores of the Pacific slope, from the snow-tipped 
peaks of the Rockies, from the table-lands of Texas and the fertile 

*Ray asked me to work this in and promised to pay the cost of the whole 
edition if I did it. I thought the offer advantageous to the class, if not in the 
best of taste.

fields of Indiana, greatest of all states, for hath she not produced 
Hawkins, she hath — as Caesar once crossed the Alps and Napoleon 
Bonaparte the Rubicon, the delegation of which I have done them the 
honor to be elected has crossed, at no little peril, but with scorn of 
the dangers in their proud hearts, the Alleghanies. Air. Chairman, 
why have we come this long and perilous journey? To free the class! 
Personally, I have no objection to Mr. Kerr, but I have just polled 
my delegation and it is the sense of my delegation that Mr. Kerr is 
lacking in some of those qualities of leadership indispensable in the 
man who is to fill so great an office." (Applause during which Gay- 
lord diligently buzz-fuzzed with his delegation.) "Mr. Chairman," he 
continued when a semblance of quiet was restored, 'T have just polled 
my delegation and under its instruction I now have the honor to place 
in nomination for the office of secretary of this class a man well- 
known to us all, a man than whom, etc. — that peerless citizen of New 
Jersey, Dr. Samuel Ward Dodd" — With resounding cheers, the Gas 
House Gang seconded the nomination, whereupon the chair with a 
sang froid which did credit to his courage pronounced C. D. elected 
as secretary. 

This high-handed outrage on constitutional rights could not but 
cause a storm of indignant protests amid the most threatening of 
which the Jovian Gaylord flashed another thunderbolt. "Mr. Chair- 
man, I have just polled my delegation and while we have come pre- 
pared to protect our rights to the last warm drop of our heroic blood, 
we come also to bring peace and harmony to the councils of this dissen- 
sion-ridden class. We stand for a principle first, for a man second and 
incidentally; we are ready to compromise if by so doing we restore 
order where disorder prevails if by that act the sword may be beaten 
into the plough-share. We propose to withdraw the name of Dr. 
Dodd, if Mr. Kerr will consent to withdraw his. Let us agree upon 
some man satisfactory to all and let us all as a single man, stand be- 
hind him and uphold his hands as he struggles with this titan labor. 
We have no favorite son whose interests we place before the interests 
of the class, we ask only that we be heard and I therefore withdraw 
the name of Dr. Dodd and nominate as a compromise candidate, one 
whose ability and steadfastness, whose gentleness and courtesy, Vv?hose 
impetuous boldness and whose thoughtful caution are known, admired, 
nay, beloved of us all, — General Miles of Tennessee." The tumult 
was now deafening. Amid the general shouting, whistle-blowing and 
band-playing, there gradually emerged from the Gas House Gang 
the throbbing, pulsing cry, "We want Miles!" that seemed a great 
organ-point beneath the fiendish symphony of caccophony directing 
and unifying into a terrible homogeneous force pregnant with pos- 
sibility of destruction, should it be opposed, this spontaneous outpour- 
ing of the pent-up feeHng of the inarticulate mob. Hope was pounding 
furiously with his stein, but in vain, until from out of the seething 

123 



mass of passion distraught even the stately figure of Miles, calm, 
smiling yet serious withal as though some mighty decision about to be 
made, had laid its solemn hand upon his broad shoulders. "Mr. 
President,'"'' he cried, lifting a beseeching hand, and, as by magic, 
the sea was quiet, the storm had ceased. "I am deeply honored by 
nomination to this distinguished ofiice, and would gladly devote such 
faculties as it has pleased God to endow me with to its duties, were it 
clear to me that my qualifications were great enough or with the help 
of my brothers of 1901, be my talents what they may, were I con- 
vinced that the welfare of the class, the maintenance of our affection 
for her at home and of respect for her untarnished honor and fame 
abroad, demanded my entry into this contest. To-night I am not so 
convinced. Insufficient though they have been, indefinite though to 
many they may have seemed, I cannot believe that the protestations, in 
terms not general, it is true, but nevertheless protestations of the sincer- 
ity of purpose impelling him in seeking this high office which Mr. 
Kerr has uttered, can be but a cloak concealing treachery, a sham 
behind which lurk fratricide and betrayal. I repeat, Mr. President, I 
cannot believe that. And yet it must be confessed that in his utter- 
ances regarding certain fundamental and vital issues affecting the 
class, Mr. Kerr has left much to inform us of regarding his position 
thereon. Therefore, Mr. President, I do not now accept this nomina- 
tion, preferring the welfare of this great class to any private vanity 
or desire for personal aggrandisement — yet therefore, Mr. President, 
I do not refuse the honor, but shall await with interest a fuller, 
more definite and I trust more satisfactory exposition by Mr. Kerr 
of his attitude on these burning issues to which I have referred." 
The contest was over — remembering the old Latin adage, "Verba 
Sapientibus faciles Sunt," and knowing Kerr's wisdom, further fight- 
ing was futile. 

The other office was filled without dispute and Peter Bruyere 
inducted into the treasurership. A few serious thoughts about 
class affairs, a Plutonic suggestion from Proteus Hawkins as to as- 
sistance to "98 in her support of a chair of physics, threats — some 
since then carried out, I am informed — of loving cups to various 
hard workers on the reunion committee and the class settled down 
under the presidency of the arbitrary judge, Brady, with a jury to 
determine the possession of the long distance cup. 

Doc Hyde first attempted to establish his rights, but the Court not 
liking his counsel nearly had him in contempt and Doc was glad to 
escape with his roll, abandoning all hope of the cup. 

Buck ]\Iellinger, under advice of a Baltimore attorney of more or 
less questionable ethics — we are informed that McLanahan has dealt 

* Let it be remembered that this election took place the next day after Theo- 
dore Roosevelt had withdrawn his name from consideration at the 1916 Repub- 
lican Convention, which thereupon nominated Mr. Hughes.

to some degree with the criminal aspects of the law and who can touch 
pitch and yet be undefiled ? — tried to spring a theory that he emanated 
from the bowels of the earth, somewhere in Pennsylvania. No evi- 
dence was produced, however, bearing upon this interesting question of 
terrestrial physiology and a number of sceptics maintained two propo- 
sitions, to wit, that the earth had no intestines and if she had, they 
were not located in Pennsylvania, but near Colon. We agreed that 
Buck looked like a gnome and that gnomes would come from the 
bowelular portions of the globe if any one did, but since we had all 
known Buck for some two decades and this was the first claim to 
gnomic fame, it was decided that he was disguised. And then it was 
generally agreed that beyond the heart of the Rockies was farther off 
than any intestinal tract. 

Hutch, who with Doc Hyde really came from California, tried bare- 
facedly to bribe the jury, providing a mile-long ticket, duplicates of 
which with two weeks free board, if they could stand it, he non- 
chalantly offered to the jury. Be it said to the glory of 1901 that 
not a juryman batted an eyelid. 

With that supreme sense of justice which always actuates him, Ray 
Swain now presented himself as a candidate to enable Dr. Hudson to 
obtain his 'revanche' for Ray's alleged breach of confidence during 
the celebrated Swain-Hudson libel suit tried last year at the '99-'oi 
Joint Reunion, Ray's protest was that he had ben en route since 
May 30, 191 5, and had travelled in that time some 40,000 miles, start- 
ing from the celebrated Kittatinny Club. Hudson's venomous cross- 
examination — "You admit, Mr. Swain, that you passed through for- 
ests — how did you escape the chipmunks? — was ended when Swain 
announced that chipmunks did not eat their kind, as Hudson, him- 
self having been through those very woods, knew full well. 

The other contestants were treated rather summarily by the arbi- 
trary court, who assumed the right to dispose of their cases by charg- 
ing the jury to disregard their claims and to bring in a verdict as he 
wished it or it would be set aside. Once outside the box, the jury 
showed their independence by completely ignoring all contestants and 
awarding the verdict to the now famous Dr. Samuel Dodd, whom, to 
use the chaste judicial language of the verdict, they found to be 
farther off even when he was here than any of the contestants at home. 

And thus was the Sabbath brought to a goodly end, to the satis- 
faction even of Janeway, whose great care that day had been. 

Spaulding Frazer. 

Monday brought us the sun again and it was June in Princeton. 
The athletes betook themselves early to their games and while some 
were disporting themselves knee deep in the hay and clover of the 
golf links, others were engaging in deadly combat on the tennis courts. 
Those who remember Sam Hamilton trying to steal second recognize 

125 



at once the ideal temperament for the royal game of golf, and Sam 
won the cup with a gross score of 90. Bergland and Carter won the 
tennis tournament, defeating Hugh Miller and Shepley in the finals. 
Bill Brady was disappointed to be put out in the first round, but he ex- 
plained it by declaring that Wib Black was too big a burden for him 
to carry. 

In the afternoon the East met the West (though Kipling says they 
never do) on the diamond, the West winning by the close margin 
of 7-6, and with the help, so some claim, of the umpiring of Carter 
and Casselberry. But the chief reason for the victory was the prowess 
of Fentress, begotten of playing on the All-Fentress team of Hub- 
bard Woods, Illinois. Fentress' domestic life is such that he can have 
a Father-and-sons tournament any day he gets away early, he playing 
around with one boy after another. 

The teams were composed as follows : 

The East The West 

Swain c Beaham 

Clausen p Fentress 

McLanahan i b Eastman 

Williamson 2 b Alex Smith 

Bowlby 

Armstrong s s Granger 

Casebolt 3 b Coale 

Berghaus 

Jim Imbrie r f Bob Petty 

E. B. Wilson c f Eber. Rose 

Sam Jones r f Badgley 

While these Cobbs and Collinses were playing at ball, the cultured 
element of the class went to the organ recital in the Graduate College. 
Even Jameson was present, going on purpose, not by accident or 
mistake. Who would have predicted this fifteen years ago? And 
yet there are pessimists in the world, who see no progress in the 
passing days! However Mrs. Jim, who hardly can believe that he was 
there, thinks he went believing that the organ was an organ of the 
body, which is more in the old Doctor's line, and that an organ recital 
was a pathological lecture. Jim said he enjoyed the recital but wished 
the professor had played "Casey Jones," which is the old Doctor's 
favorite on the \'ictor. 

Then came The Dansant, for the wives. And again we recalled 
Schaft''s observation of five years ago, as he saw a group of the better 
halves, "It beats me, how they ever got away with it." It was a very 
nice party and a decided feature of the reunion. And, by the way, 
the 1901 Reunion Cup stood on the centre table full of a splendid lot 
of peonies which Mrs. Hibben had sent with her compliments to the

class. Some of the offspring were there also, notably Ollie Badgley's 
two-year-old beauty (Advt. "Not at all, Ollie, I was very glad to put it 
in." — F. L. J.). And then, when the last guest had departed and 
the bachelors had cheered up again, we all sat down to dinner in the 
tent. Listen to Steve Whitman as he tells you about it. 

THE CLASS DINNER 
(By Steve Whitman) 

The class dinner was magnificent beyond expectations. Did we rea- 
lize while it was in progress that we had there a picture of uncommon 
richness — the blaze of orange overhead reflected, as it were, in the 
gay paper head-dresses round the long tables ; the sailing balloons of 
the same inspiring color, and the mist of smiling faces darting every- 
where beams of good-fellowship? It was then, perhaps, that the 
great reunion reached its climax. Again we were one family at one 
fine feast. The years shaken off in that glowing and vibrant tent, we 
were the comrades of the old days, when all the world was filled with 
the orange light of a splendid sunrise. 

Ninety of us had promised to attend this dinner. Before the hour 
one hundred and fifteen were on hand. But when the dinner was 
ready, a hundred and twenty-seven sat down at table, the late arrivals 
accommodated on the platform. If more had come we should still have 
found a place for them. If, by some delightful chance, the rest of our 
full roll had marched in to us in a body, the tent would have ex- 
panded magically; fresh tables would have sprung from the ground; 
there would have been food and drink for all. To this Class nothing 
could be impossible. 

There was music. Where all of it came from some of us do not 
know ; but it was not wholly due to the efforts of an Ethiopian quartet. 
In the pauses between the cabaret tunes the air was filled with the 
echoes of older melodies. They recalled the warm nights when Fresh- 
man choruses had dared the silence; or when the black and orange 
ranks pranced from curb to curb on Nassau Street in a glitter of 
red lights; or when a few walked and sang on the grass, looking up 
at the towers white in the moonbeams ; or when the loving-cup passed 
from hand to hand, and the shadows came down from the elms to 
hide a certain moisture in our eyes. Some say that after a crowded 
reunion they can hear the bands for days-; but that night there were 
many of us, no doubt, who, looking down the rows of good faces so 
long withheld, heard something better, the echoes of music made in 
youth. For this, though maybe contrary to Magie's Physics, is true; 
there are some vibrations that never die away. 

Soon there developed business even more congenial than the eating 
of good food. Calvin Fentress, who was toast-master, presented the 
cups. The long-distance cup went to Doc Hyde, who had come to 

127 



us from near Santa Barbara ; the golf cup went to Sam Hamilton ; 
the tennis cups to Eric Bergland and Howard Carter. But in order 
that everyone, no matter what his momentary lack of athletic prowess, 
might have a piece of plate, we all found ourselves furnished with 
silver pencils. Speeches followed. Alex. Smith described in glowing 
details the achievements of the Class. General Miles orated, but dis- 
appointed the more naive of us by not punctuating his remarks with 
pistol-shots. Rodman Schaff, rising to heights of pathetic eloquence, 
discussed the life of the maple-syrup hunter. Glenn Bartholemew 
spread before us the glamour of Bufifalo. And Craig McLanahan, 
Gaylord Hawkins and Ralph Swofford eulogised us till we could not 
forebear to cheer and cheer again. Then the telegrams were read 
from those unable to be with us, and we instructed the secretary to 
telegraph our affection in reply. Finally, when we had sung the class 
ode, we wended our way to the Casino for the minstrel show. 

But as we emerged from the bright tent into the darkness many of 
us felt again the strength of that spell which had held us throughout 
the dinner. For now we were leaving for the road the cheery board 
that had reunited us after certain years. Many of us — no, surely all 
of us — had then a moment of regret, a desire to return to the orange 
light, to take our seats again, to shut out the dark and even the dawn, 
to put off indefinitely the ending of the meal that might never in 
just that composition be repeated. It is hard to regain the illusion of 
youth, and then see it fade away. Shall we catch it again? Let us 
fervently hope so, and strive mightily to make the desire come true. 
But if we do not, nothing can take away from us the memory of the 
inner reunion of that night, in which all visible faces appeared as they 
used to look, at which who knows what others, invisible to our eyes, 
were not present. 

Stephen Whitman. 

Then came the Minstrels ! After the dinner the 1901 chapter of 
the sons of Lew Dockstader entertained us in the casino with a per- 
formance entitled, in honor of the Shakespeare tercentenary, "The 
]\Ierry Wives of Nassau."' Words are vain to describe the array of 
ebony talent which gave us two hours of song and laughter. What 
words, for instance, could adequately picture the portly presence of 
Stephen Whitman, Interlocutor, arrayed in a cream-colored dress-suit, 
with his Ethiopic countenance shining above a flamboyant tie of orange 
silk, while his feet cried aloud in orange socks and black pumps. 
Bob Whiting was on one end — Raymond Swain, chief of that hobo- 
hemian brotherhood who frequent the gas-house precincts of Newark, 
was at the other. Nick Carter, Tommy Wrenn, C. D. Kerr, Ev. 
Crawford, Pete Bruyere, Smylie Kinne, Vondy, Bob Monks, chief 
promoter of the show, we understand, Mellen Matthews, Hungry 
Willis, Pete Vredenburgh, Hugh Miller, Bruce Armstrong and Ollie

GROUPS AT THE FIFTEENTH REUNION 



Badgley made up the rest of the spectacle. It was a real entertainment 
to which these men had given much time, and it was a big success. 
It was after midnight, when it was over and the audience adjourned 
to the tent. Here even the most bashful grew bold and even Walter 
Mount rose to the platform and sang a hymn of hate about somebody's 
eyes ! At three A. M. the gas-house gang threatened to inspect every 
room in Hill dormitory, to see if conditions were hygienic. Some 
cooler heads dissuaded them. Few of the sleeping inmates knew 
how narrowly they escaped dying in agony in the Bruyere trenches 
under waves of poisoned gas. 

At last, and yet too soon, came Tuesday. The headquarters were 
being dismantled, and the crowd scattering. But many remained to 
the luncheon in the gymnasium. The strenuous efforts to muster a win- 
ning percentage at this reunion resulted in 183 names on the register. 
Bill Meyers arrived on Tuesday at 11.45. But '66 had present 18 out of 
2^ on the roll, a percentage the same as ours, 66 2-3. Wherefore at the 
luncheon Ev. Crawford presented the 1901 cup to '66 and '66 re-pre- 
sented it to us. And by motion of President Hibben both classes will 
have their names inscribed on it. And with this we separated after 
five joyous days, looking forward across five years when again we 
shall return to renew beneath the shadow of Old North the friend- 
ships begun there nineteen years ago and to renew the loyalty to the 
Alma Mater in whose life those friends were found and by whose 
spirit these ties of fellowship were consecrated.

THE EIGHTEENTH (EXTRA DIVIDEND) 
REUNION, JUNE 13-16, 1919 

1901's "Extra Dividend in Reunions" brought 97 men back to 
Princeton, but, though small in number, 1901 occupied the leading 
place on the Princeton stage. 1901's manly beauty — clad in white 
suits, with 1901 pockets, divisional designations consisting of a black 
'01 on an orange tiger field on the left shoulder, and 18 service stripes 
on the left arm — as was to be expected, aroused the unstinted admira- 
tion of the Commencement throngs. 

But, of course, 1901's pre-eminence was not limited to any mere 
sartorial display. It was emphasized in the presentation of prizes to 
the Princeton Battery by our own Lieut.-Col. Craig McLanahan ; 
in the graduate singing on the Steps of Old North at the suggestion 
and under the supervision of 1901 ; in the 1901 Exhibit of "Implements 
of War, Woodrow Wilson Period,"' which drew a continuous stream 
of visitors; in the contest for the 1901 Reunion Trophy Cup, won by 
the vigorous young Class of '69 with 18 men present out of 26, a per- 
centage of 69; in the election of Walter E. Hope, our president, as 
Alumni Trustee; and in President Hibben's tribute of appreciation to 
1901 during the Graduation Exercises for the prospective Memorial 
for its two Gold Star Men. 

Nor was 1901's superiority shown solely in the exhibition of its 
beauty and demonstration of its brains as just indicated; the Class 
also demonstrated the superiority of its brawn on the athletic field. 
A game of Fentress baseball was played with 1903 on Friday after- 
noon. It was impossible to learn the final score of the game, because 
the scorer got writer's cramp, but sufficient it is to say that Ros 
Easton, '98, the umpire, at the end of the fourth inning declared that 
1901 had won, principally because of exhaustion on the part of our 
opponents. Then followed a game between the East and the West, and 
because of the difficulty of the West in finding anyone who knew any- 
thing about the game, it was decided that Chester, Pa., was a W^estern 
town, and that Pittsburgh and Chicago were hamlets in the wilderness, 
but even by taking such flagrant liberties with the map, the West could 
not produce sufficient good players to overcome the athletic predomi- 
nance of the East, the final score being 83 to 15. 

At Fleadquarters the last word in decorations was supplied by 
Wilford Conrow and Wib Black. One entered the tent through 
leafy screens of boughs, and the stage was so camouflaged that one 
was equafly prepared for the appearance of a Rosalind from the Forest 

130 



of Arden or a helmeted Boche from the Forest of Argonne. And 
the walls in Headquarters were covered with beauties and manly 
forms appealing to the Class to Win the War by saving food, buying 
Liberty Bonds and other slogans of an Age not long since passed. 

The Reunion was also the occasion for the formation of a new or- 
ganization, comprised of those who roomed in the 1901 Inn, on 
the corner of Dickinson and University Place, called the Gridiron 
Club. The name was derived from certain impressions — not mental — 
which came as a result of sleeping upon spring cots without mat- 
tresses, supplied by the Committee. Charlie Meinken, because of 
rumors, later vehemently denied, was elected President of the Club, 
and Rack Lee, Testimentary Trustee. 

Sunday at the Reunion was a day long to be remembered. Over- 
head, a cloudless sky, and a cool air tempering the blazing sun ! A 
pluperfectissimo of a day! Our sole disappointment was that the 
Class en masse could not attend the Baccalaureate sermon, but when 
our few representatives who were able to squeeze in had returned, 
the Class, in "Seeing Princeton" busses, repaired to Lawrie Benson's 
farm for luncheon. That was something we shall not forget — our 
wives and wives-to-be in the latest hints from Paris, tables spread on 
shady lawns laden with food for the gods and nectar from Mt. 
Olympus. A combination irresistible ! 

In the afternoon came a beautiful service in Procter Hall at the 
Graduate College memorial to the Men of Stars of Gold. Those of 
us who did not secure seats inside sat on the grass on the terrace, and 
to the throb of that wonderful organ, the clear notes of trumpets and 
the harmony of selected voices, paid tribute to the men who had gone 
West. 

In the evening 60 men sat down to our Class Dinner, which was 
run by the master hand of Jimmie Imbrie. What followed was some 
slight indication of what Princeton means to 1901. It was proposed 
that we give to Princeton two scholarships of $5,000 each, in 
memory of Cuthbert Piatt and of Bob Whiting, our two men who 
had given their lives during the war. The mere giving of those two 
scholarships was to the small number of the Class present not a suffi- 
cient indication of our affection for Princeton and these two men, 
and before the subscriptions were closed more than twice the amount 
asked for was subscribed, and additional pledges were made, con- 
tingent on the raising of a still larger sum. 

Following the Dinner and the action of the Class on the Memorial, 
came a series of interesting talks by Lieut. -Col. Jim Jameson, Con- 
gressman Bert Fisher, and Ex-Artilleryman Cap. Schaff. 

After the election of Everett Crawford as a member of the Gradu- 
ate Council, for the unexpired term of Walter Hope, it was decided, 
as Julius Baldwin had come to the Reunion from Seattle, and Bob 
Swigart from Los Angeles, to give each of them half a loving cup to 

131 



show the appreciation of the Class for their taking the journey of 
3,000 miles to attend the Reunion. 

The climax of the evening came when the conspirators, Lyn Dick- 
inson, Steve Whitman, Ray Swain, Bob Monks, Charlie Aleinken, 
Eddie Clausen, Bill Brady and George Yuengling, appeared on the 
stage and disclosed themselves respectively in the characters of Col- 
onel Souse; Premier Clemenceau; Lloyd George; Signor Orlando; 
Baron Alakino; Ah Sit, the Chinese Delegate; Pat O'Bleary, the Irish 
whiskey delegate, and the Bolshevist Yuenglinski. And their cos- 
tumes ! Ma f oi ! Words can not describe them ! 

There ensued a serious and profound discussion of the difficulties 
of making Trenton Safe for Humanity. It was a true League of 
Notions ! The learned statesmen were not all agreed on the Four- 
teen Points presented by the American delegate. Col. Souse, and their 
deliberations were disturbed by the bomb-dropping activities of Yueng- 
linksi and by differences of opinion as to the interpretations to be 
placed on the machine-gun like eruptions of Ah Sit, although Baron 
Makino never failed to suppress his Asiatic neighbor in a truly manda- 
tory manner, and always had a perfectly reasonable explanation for 
everything Ah Sit said. Signor Orlando also had distinct views with 
regard to his countrymen's rights in the Trentino, and he kept "Fiume- 
ing" at the lack of consideration that was given his claims in A-dry- 
attic. A rather discordant element in the proceedings was Pat 
O'Bleary, who took violent exception to all the remarks of Lloyd 
George, while Pat's explosions stuck in Lloyd's gorge. 

More particular mention must also be made of our War Exhibit 
labelled "Implements of War, Woodrow Wilson Period. Collected 
at the Front by the Members of the Class of 1901." The fame of 
the Exhibit spread and delegation after delegation from other Classes 
formed a constant stream of visitors who stood aghast at the ingenuity 
and daring of the men who had contributed the various mementos. 
The collection included a Budweiser helmet, a cootie trap, a U bit 
periscope, the inkwell to be used in signing the Peace Treaty, a 
French Whippet tank, a Belgian well poisoned by the Boche, a blood- 
stained German gas curtain, a Boche hell-mit, an arm amputated by 
Col. Jameson, a German gas projector and a dust-covered chair for- 
merly used by President Wilson, before he took up his residence in 
Paris. 

Another matter of interest was the presentation of the 1901 cross 
to Jimmie McLean, for extreme exposure in Champagne during a 
German bombing raid. 

The thanks of the Class are due to the members of the Reunion 
Committee and particularly to Ray Swain, Chairman, who worked 
unendingly in getting ready for the Reunion, Eddie Casebolt, Pro- 
prietor of the 1901 Inn, who supplied one hundred cots, blankets, 
sheets, pillows, towels, etc., for our comfort; Phin Jones, all our re-

THE TWENTIETH REUNION CORPORATION 
JUNE 17-20, 1921 

1901's Twentieth Reunion brought 155 men out of 251 back to 
Princeton to win our own Reunion Trophy Cup for the third time, 
with a percentage of 61.8%, and to have one of the best — many said 
it was the best — Reunions of 1901's existence. And when one recalls 
the wonderful times we had at the Tenth and Fifteenth, as well as at 
our earlier gatherings, that is not faint praise to Reunion Chairman 
Witherbee Black and the members of his indefatigable Committee. 

As each member arrived he was everywhere met with evidences of 
the completest of preparations. The Headquarters Committee under 
the direction of Al Childs had provided us with a commodious and 
comfortable house and a roomy tent on a shady lawn, while Smylie 
Kinne had had erected an orange screen to conceal us from the public 
gaze, and had as well supplied the tent with tasteful decorations. When 
each man had registered and had received from E. B. Wilson an orange 
tie, a neat and attractive class hat-band, a 1901 stick pin, and an 
honest-to-goodness hook cane, Tommy Thompson presented him with 
the freedom of a most comfortable room in the 1901 Inn (Brown 
Hall, Seminary) and he next was led by Wilford Conrow to an artist's 
easel that he might portray thereon the lineaments that each thought he 
possessed. Then, when each portrait was completed, it was hung within 
the tent, that the whole world might admire what we saw in ourselves. 
But more of that anon. And George Yuengling was there to convince 
each new arrival by a hypnotic glance that one of the joys of the Re- 
union was the cheerful giving of all that he had. 

How fine it was to see each man as he arrived ! Here were the 
sunkist sons, native and adopted, of California, Johnny McWilliams, 
Swi, Chippy Park, Hutch and Pete Braly; Frank Young from Knox- 
ville. Matt Harper from Atlanta, and Ralph Thompson from New 
York, sampling with Pete Braly their first Reunion ; Lifty Lawton, 
from St. Louis — with the most wonderful form at golf that anyone 
ever did see and offering to contribute to everyone's happiness and ex- 
pense accounts and doing it, too, if reports are to be believed ; Amos 
Judd, from Kenosha, whom most of us had not seen since our fifth 
Reunion ; Gordon Beahani and Nate Hendricks, from Kansas City, and 
many other regular and irregular attendants from all points of the 
compass. How young most of us looked ! At least until some thought- 
ful neighbor tipped off one's hat just to see how gray the thatch was 
or how little there was left. And then, when these first warm greetings 

134 



were over, for old times' sake we partook of a libation from a cool stein, 
and lo, the illusion was so complete that we were loath to believe that 
its cheering contents could be computed in fractional precentages. 

When Friday noon came, about 75 men were on hand, and after 
luncheon essayed to teach a game of Fentress baseball to 1906. This 
1906 very politely and, of course, entirely as a matter of courtesy, 
permited us to win by the score of 3-2. 

By Friday evening 125 men were on hand to go, stereopticonally 
speaking, "way back to freshman year." With Walter Hope as director 
and Charlie Meinken as lecturer we wondered at ourselves in freshman 
groups galore, read again the long forgotten horse cards, notices of 
conditions and suspensions of those whom we had always supposed 
were model students, were amazed at the names of the leaders of class 
prayer meetings, and saw a great variety of reproductions both sober- 
ing and ridiculous, the pieces de resistance being the only known pic- 
ture of Swain's family of eight children, of Fort playing a five handed 
game of poker with himself, and finally of Hope posing as the bearded 

lady. 

Next we were introduced to Frank Huyler's Famous 1901 Players, 
who lived up to the slogan of their chief by giving us something "Fresh 
Every Minute." Their first production was entitled "Grover Baby- 
Doll," by C. Raymond Swain. We never did find out where Grover 
buried that pot of gold, but Charlie Meinken and Bob Monks as 
Mama and Grover Baby-Doll, respectively, were vastly entertaining, 
while Rodman Schaff, as the Rev. Dr. Bilby who objected to Grover's 
escaping of a Sunday, was par excellence the popular but erroneous 
notion of our Harry. Sara Bernhard was an amusing Secretary of the 
Bar, while the way Stanley WiHiamson, as a member of the General 
Staff, talked was reminiscent of the days when a court martial was the 
next thing on Stanley's program. Spaulding Frazer in his makeup of 
a Philadelphia lawyer looked so much like a clergyman that he was 
suspected of trying to crab Dr. Bilby's lines. 

After the play, Tillie Marr very obligingly sang again and again 
in response to repeated encores, and whether he sings Italian opera or 
the high note reach we think he's the only pebble on the beach. 

Saturday morning with bright skies saw our number swell to 150, 
while we were busy welcoming wives, families and friends, and brought 
also the full quota of Shrimp Warner's now famous saxophone band. 
No one ever before thought or heard of a twenty-piece saxophone 
band and that's why we had one. Meanwhile one of Shrimp's opera- 
tors was busy taking moving pictures of the famous men of 1901 and 
our guests. 

After a satisfying luncheon in the tent, with our saxophone band 
in Fierrot suits, we paraded to the campus, being "shot" en route by 
our own special cinema artist. Modesty forbids to tell of the riotous 



135 



welcome we received from the Commencement throngs or how well 
we looked as we marched along 150 strong. 

And then that game ! Again were our perfect arrangements car- 
ried out ! But we always plan it that way at our Reunions, because 
it not only gives such pleasure to 1901 but also adds to the enjoyment 
of all other Princetonians. 

Saturday night after Alumni Singing we gathered in the tent while 
Walter Hope presented to Dr. Spaeth the 1901 Medal as a tribute to 
his splendid work as a professor and the fine and sportsmanlike way in 
which he has developed our crews. The inscription read : "Presented 
to J. Duncan Spaeth by the Class of 1901 in appreciation of his service 
to Princeton, June, 192 1." After Dr. Spaeth had spoken, telling us 
a little of the way his crews had been developed, the 1910 quartette 
appeared and gave us some delightful songs. 

Next came another production of the 1901 Players entitled "School 
Days," by Charlie Meinken. Charlie made a lovely school marm, the 
naughty girls were Goliatha Yuengling, Sassifras Brady and Inky 
Carter, and the bad boys Brick Kinne, Scissors McLean, Stentorius 
Swain, and Silvertop Monks, while Soupsnifter Hawkins appeared as 
the visiting Trustee. As for those girls and boys, precocity was their 
middle name, and Charlie had certainly been successful in imparting 
to them a most extraordinary assortment of information. 

On Sunday morning the usual 1901 Sunday School class on the 
front campus was largely attended. Sunday morning on the front 
campus at Commencement is our idea of a close-up of Paradise. 

Then came one of the most enjoyable episodes of the Reunion. 
The whole Class, with their wives and children, were welcomed at 
luncheon by Alex and Helen Smith. And how we did enjoy it! With 
what approval we observed our own and our friends' wives and chil- 
dren, and rejoiced in exchanging compliments concerning them! And 
when they were all grouped together to be photographed we thought a 
lot of ourselves collectively. 

At 3.30 we repaired to the laying of the corner-stone and dedication 
of Pyne Hall in memory of M. Taylor Pyne, and then went to do 
honor at the grave of that great Princetonian, who was the personal 
friend of so many of us, and benefactor for all time of Princeton. 

Here, let Glenn Bartholomew take up the tale of Sunday night. 

THE CLASS MEETING 

Late Sunday afternoon little groups of 1901 men from the front 
campus, from the Graduate College, from the Lake and from many 
beautiful highways and byways of Princeton foregathered at Madison 
Hall. Blazing orange ties, handsome walking sticks and a combined 
air of prosperity and contentment informed the public at large the 
name of this distinguished class ; and looks of sober determination on

the faces of Ray Swain, Jimmie Imbrie, Huddy Hi .son and E. B. 
Wilson told the class that a serious business meeting was ahead. 

On the second floor of Madison Hall, one of the beautiful oak 
wainscoted rooms had been set apart for the class meeting and here 
Walter Hope called the meeting to order at 6.30. The shades of the 
disputatious James Madison and the ghosts of noisy University Hall 
sophomores of by-gone days cast their spell over the gathering. Alex 
Smith in his becoming suit of white had scarcely announced the possi- 
bility of 190 1 immortalizing itself by allocating its Endowment Fund 
Subscriptions to a new 1901 Dormitory when the discussion grew hot 
and furious. C. D. told us four new dormitories were proposed by the 
Trustees and that Walter Hope, as member of the Building Committee 
of the Board had secured the reservation to 1901 of one of these dormi- 
tories provided the $180,000 now subscribed by the Class could be 
raised to $250,000. The plan was to continue our five annual sub- 
scriptions over an additional two years, thus adding the needed two- 
fifths to the sum already pledged. Senator Fort and Vondy explained 
that if 1901 thus took the lead it would bring the other classes into 
line and make possible the $14,000,000 endowment fund goal. 

A motion was put to pledge the class to this plan by vote of the 
class, but an array of legal talent, headed by Spaulding Frazer, spoke 
in opposition, arguing that individuals could not and should not be 
obligated in this wholesale manner. The consensus of opinion — both 
legal and illegal — agreed that the individuals could not be bound but 
that the Trustees should be assured that their reservation of a dor- 
mitory for 1901 was approved by the class and the class assumed the 
moral obligation of endeavoring to raise the moneys at such time in 
the next three or four years as the Trustees might call upon the class 
to secure their individual written pledges. All agreed that a hard and 
fast rule extending the pledges for two years would work unfairly in 
some instances, making the individual burden too heavy or too light, 
but that in general the extension plan was workable. 

Sarah Bernhard's question — "Spaulding, do you object to an op- 
tion" — brought out the lightness of the obligation of the proposed 
Resolution, which thereupon was carried by a unanimous vote : 

"Resolved, that the Class approve the project of asking the 
members of the Class to increase their Endowment Fund sub- 
scriptions by continuing payments thereof until our Twenty- 
fifth Reunion in 1926, thereby increasing the amounts by 
two-fifths of the original subscription, to the end that the 
Fund so raised may, if possible, be employed in the giving of 
a dormitory or other class memorial, and that the Class pledge 
its endeavors to the carrying out of such project." 

Secretary Kerr and Treasurer Bruyere then discussed class finances, 
telling of the $600 deficit in the class treasury; how the Alumni 

137 



Weekly Fund that sends The Weekly to every member of the Class 
had but 105 contributors ; and of the Special 1901 Fund started by 
Frank Huyler to help out families of the Class in cases of special 
financial need. The meeting then approved the levying of annual 
voluntary subscriptions. Next the class deficit threatened to become 
the subject of another violent discussion, but Johnny McWilliams broke 
the flow of oratory by decisive action. 

"Fellows," he said, "we have had three wonderful days and it's 

a d shame to let our class officers who have worked and planned 

for us to stagger along under a debt that belongs to us. Let's clean 
this up right here and now! Fll give you just five minutes to get this 
out of the way. Here's the hat ! Here, I am ready for business ! 
Who's first? Don't rush, gentlemen. One at a time. That's good! 
Who's next ? Here we are ! Business is fine ! Right this way. Don't 
crowd too fast — give us time to record your bets and count the money." 
It took just ten minutes to lift the deficit with a little surplus over, 
and then virtue had swift reward. Some one discovered a wash tub 
of orange blossoms in the rear of the assembly room and the motion to 
adjourn was carried with a rush that brought the thirsty crowd flock- 
ing to the edge of the tub of spirituous refreshment. The orange 
blossoms spoke with authority and a mighty kick. They whooped her 
up and down for Naughty-One and admitted in Song that Yale's in- 
ability to play baseball left no carking care on their brows, and if 
Mister didn't want a shine they still had an appreciative interest in the 
fermented juice of the grape. 

The grave old graduates of twenty years' standing were now as 
wild as the gay young sophomores and were willing to "tell the world" 
as they sallied down the stairs, out into Nassau Street and into the 
huge University Dining Hall where the tables were spread for the 
class dinner. 

. THE CLASS DINNER 

The two long tables, seating sixty men each, ran the length of the 
dining hall and at the head sat the Class and Reunion officers. There 
they all were — President Hope in the center and on either side, C. D. 
Kerr, Ev. Crawford, Cal. Fentress, Wib. Black, Pete Bruyere, Alex. 
Smith and George Yuengling. 

No hushed silence fell upon the multitude as the crowd took their 
seats. Busy student waiters in white with trays of delicious food 
dodged in and out of groups of noisy banqueters who were too en- 
thusiastic to remain seated. Eddie Clausen wound his arms around the 
revelling Indian and insisted on a duet. Johnny Frazer stood on the 
table and started a collection for the student waiters. Doc Cornell 
tried to walk the table tops. Johnny McWilliams, Jimmy Imbrie and 
MacClanahan sang of the relative merits of the Artillery and Infantry 

138 



and their voices over-rode the tempest of sound, reverberating among 
the dim oak rafters far overhead. For the moment Dr. Hudson's 
strident demands for order and attention were lost in the din. 

The more sedate members enjoyed the menu and the riot of pep and 
action that engulfed the room. After a time the discordant notes all 
settled down into a rhythmic "Bamman- Yodel! Bamman-Yodel!", 
which finally brought Bam to his feet and to our ears "I see my love 
at the window" — that old, old-fashioned song so redolent of our June 
evenings on the campus twenty years ago. 

Schuyler Smith and Frank Fort submitted the report of the Com- 
mittee in awarding the long distance cup. Swi Swigart, our prize 
medalist, already the owner of a cup and a half won at previous Re- 
unions, held strong claim to the award by the superior distance of 
three city blocks, but Swi gracefully withdrew in favor of Pete Braly, 
back for the first time in twenty years, as big and handsome and young 
as ever. Pete accepted the cup with a fine little speech, pledging to his 
boys that are and are to be the advantage of a Princeton education. 
The crowd called for Swi and he modestly agreed to remain in keen 
competition for the long distance cups so long as his vices of the 
reunion habit and a California residence continued. 

The Class examined and admired the 1901 medal annually awarded 
to the Senior who is voted by his class as having done most for Prince- 
ton, and learned that it was to be awarded this year to Mike Callahan, 
Captain of the 1920 victorious football. 

After violently dignified interruptions from Dr. Hudson, Waker 
Hope read a splendid letter to the class from Billy Vance, now at 
Atlantic City, where he is regaining his health, and then Walter drew 
from underneath the table a beautiful high-powered rifle with tele- 
scopic sights, which he presented in behalf of the class to Wib Black, 
Chairman of our Reunion Committee. Walter's speech gave us some 
conception of the tremendous task of planning and running a successful 
Reunion, which Wib had performed so splendidly, and Wib in turn 
thanked the Class and gave all credit for the success of the Reunion 
to his lieutenants, George YuengHng, E. B. Wilson, Tommy Thompson, 
Jimmy Imbrie, Shrimp Warner, Wilfred Conrow, Bob Monks, Charley 
Meinken, Stanley Williamson, Al Childs, Smiley Kinne, Ray Swain, 
Frank Huyler, Frank Fort, Cal Fentress, Pete Bruyere, Alex Smith, 
Walter Hope, Ev. Crawford and C. D. Kerr. 

Cal Fentress in a happy speech presented to Walter Hope the Class 
of 1901 Medal, upon which was the inscription "Presented to Walter 
E. Hope that member of 1901 who had done most for Princeton and 
his Class." Then Walter in his speech of acceptance gave us a clear-cut 
analysis of 1901 in its relation to Princeton and a vision of the com- 
manding position in Princeton's destiny that is ours to win. 

Silver medals presented in turn to Ev Crawford and Cal Fentress, 
Vice-Presidents, to C. D. Kerr, Secretary, and to Pete Bruyere, Treas- 



139 



turer, brought felicitous speeches from all the officers, but strange as 
it may seem the most touching one was not from the Treasurer but from 
the Secretary. 

The crowd wanted one more speech from our new Alumni Trustee, 
who had dominated the meeting with his fiery enthusiasm, but Johnny 
McWilliams said he could make it best next morning and we let him 
off with this promise, recollecting his last speech had been so successful 
that it cost us $700.00. 

Eddie Casebolt, who with Eastman and E. B. Wilson comprised the 
Election Board, announced the results of the Class Election, which had 
been determined by the Einstein Method. The class officers and Execu- 
tive Committee elected for the next five years were as follows : 

Witherbee Black, President 

H. Alexander Smith, ist Vice-President 

A. G. Bartholomew, 2nd Vice-President 

Frank L. Janeway, Secretary 

George W. Yuengling, Treasurer 

H. Alexander Smith, Graduate Council Representative

The crowd hailed President Black with acclaim and led by our Cali- 
fornia cheer leader, we closed the meeting with a 1901 cheer for 1901 
and a mighty locomotive for PRINCETON— PRINCETON- 
PRINCETON ! 

A guard of honor assembled to bear the now empty but imposing 
1901 Reunion Trophy cup to Headquarters, and the class paraded out 
on to Nassau Street over to the Mercer Street tent to the resounding 
marching song, "O we'll whoop her up for Naughty-One, We'll whoop 
her up again!" 

SUNDAY NIGHT IN THE TENT 

Festoons of electric lights flooded the long pine tables and benches 
of the tent with light. Along two sides of the tent, suspended from 
wires, were one hundred fifty artistic holographic representations com- 
posing the Rogues' Gallery, consisting of crayon portraits of each 
member of the Class, drawn of himself, by himself, for himself. At 
the further end of the tent was the stage with footlights, stage cur- 
tains and Shrimp Warner's saxaphone band of colored gentlemen 
garbed in orange and black Yama Yama suits, surmounted by cornu- 

140 



copia hats of the same colors. After a few minutes of minstrelsy the 
saxophone entertainers were obscured by a motion picture screen, 
which Shrimp Warner placed at the foot of the stage, the Hghts were 
turned out and then from the darkened tent there blazed forth on the 
screen the handsome figures and faces of 1901 marching from Reunion 
Headquarters to the Yale game— a life-like set of motion pictures 
Shrimp took the day before, as well as flashlight movies of the inter- 
ior of the tent Saturday night. How handsome we all did look on the 
screen and how unconscious of the tremendous applause which greeted 
us on our line of march ! "There I am !" "There you are !" "There's 
Huddy in his overalls and rake!" "Look at 'Bowlb' with the stein!" 
"No, that's the guy next to him." Etc., etc. 

The mutual admiration society of 1901 viewing themselves as others 
see them ended only too soon and when the lights were turned on 
Dean McClenahan was discovered in our midst. Cries of "Speech — 
Irish. Irish — Speech !" brought him to the platform. Dean McClena- 
han regaled the class by repetition of a grudging admission of the 
superiority of 1901 spoken by a 1902 man in an unguarded moment, 
and compared undergraduates of 1901 with undergraduates of 1921 to 
no detriment of the former, but marvelling that under the then condi- 
tions we amounted to anything. The references to the faculty of a 
generation ago were particularly flattering after Johnny McWilliams 
interrupted a description of some of their idiosyncrasies by the words, 
"But we love them all. Dean." 

After some remarkable duck hunting pictures in which Shrimp 
Warner figured up stage, the award of first prize to the artist of the 
most interesting subject in the Rogues' Gallery took place under the 
direction of Lyn Dickinson on behalf of the Art Commission. Picar- 
esque qualities in the portraits of Meinken, Willis, Clausen, Granger, 
Black and Swain reduced the competition to a half dozen, and these 
foremost portraitists of the class each retained counsel to assert his 
claim to artistic fame. Meinken felt he could best rely on the rotund 
voice and figure of Swain ; Hungry Willis asked Gansworth to lead his 
tame skunk to victory ; Eddie Clausen staked his lot on the oratory of 
Hutchings ; Granger commanded the artistic sense and lore of Spauld- 
ing Frazer. Black had produced a perfect delineation of a gentleman 
of sporting proclivities done in the best comic valentine style and 
coloring, and chose Meinken as its chairman. Swain's sketch of him- 
self was dominated by a substantial nose on which the red crayon had 
been used for a splendid lighting effect, and he employed Cap Schaff 
as his attorney. 

The arguments were convincing. Each advocate expounded the 
compelling qualities of his client's portrait and was caustically critical 
and frankly personal as to all the other exhibits. Spaulding Frazer 
showed the results of many an evening spent in Greenwich Village and 
his unusual acquaintance with the Cubist and Futurist schools of art 



141 



stood him in good stead. Charley Meinken had the prize won for his 
chent until he placed the crook of his cane jauntily over his left arm 
and placed his hands in his pockets, to which the audience vociferously 
objected. Schaff's frequent allusions to Dr. Einstein's theory of rela- 
tivity illuminated the Swain picture and Cap waxed eloquent in the 
rosy glow of idealism reflected from the very red nose that dominated 
the portrait. Ray Swain having been paid a large retainer, so he said, 
to represent INIeinken, called attention to the resemblance of Mein- 
ken's figure to the running gear of Katydid. Thereat Meinken made 
some rejoinder of "casting pearls before Swain." 

Finally Swain was called upon to sum up impartially for all the 
exhibitors. After passing somewhat disdainfully on his rivals' por- 
traits he dwelt pridefuUy on his own masterpiece, averring that it was 
an exact likeness, except that he had never been able to acquire the 
red nose with which he had favored himself. That colorful projection, 
he confessed, represented an ambition which he had never found it 
possible to achieve because of lack of funds, and now with the advent 
of prohibition it was something which he never would be able to 
acquire. So, out of sympathy for Ray's blighted ambition, the Class 
voted his the most speaking likeness and he was awarded the prize, — 
a stein of tepid near-beer which he refused to share with the Gas 
House Gang and quaffed (to use his own word) in the sight of the 
multitude assembled, leaving the stage with this hollow farewell, 
"Thanks, fellows." 

It was now midnight. The saxophone artists had long since de- 
parted and the crowd left the tent for a night's sleep at the Seminary 
dormitory. Not all, however. Bob Monks, Walter Mount, Frank 
Fort, Huddy, Vondy, Spaulding Frazer, Charley Meinken and a hand- 
ful of kindred spirits drew their chairs closer together in the chill mid- 
night air and in the center of the tent got ready for an all night session 
of song and reason. 

A. G. Bartholomew. 

What an evening it was! We lingered on, joining in story and song 
until night had merged into morning and Walter Mount had again 
consigned someone's eyes to flames of unutterable torment, and we were 
sadly leaving the tent, loath to acknowledge that a span of five years 
would intervene before we would all — or possibly not all — gather 
again, when suddenly a figure appeared on the rostrum and we were 
recalled to the tent, to become spectators of (or shall we say par- 
ticipants in?) a one-act play entitled "Princeton Spirit," which had only 
two character parts, Phil Rice of Connecticut, a scion of New England 
stock, and Claude Hudson, of Virginia, of the Cavalier strain, both of 
the Class of 1801. Princeton. 

A little matter such as Phil's absence was no deterrent to the un- 
conquerable Huddy, who alternately became Phil, of unbending Puri- 

142 



tan forebears, and Huddy, of chivalric Virginia. The theme of the 
play was the blending of the Cavalier and Puritan ideals to produce the 
Princeton of our day, and the climax came with the singing of that 
perfect expression of Princeton ideals, "Old Nassau," by the entire 
company of players and spectators. 

Incidental parts were covered by Gil Casselberry, who supplied, for 
the absent hero Phil, the necessary geographical locations and trans- 
portation facilities in the then territory of Ohio, to which he went west 
to make his fortune, and by Seldom S. Gill, '97, who obligingly assisted 
in the part of Phil when action was demanded by the co-stars at the 
same moment. 

It seems proper to say that the great success of the play at its single 
public production was due not only to the remarkable histronic power 
of the author-star, but also to the close attention and co-operation of 
the whole audience which never allowed the action to falter for a 
moment and supplied many apt and soul-stirring lines not in the 
original text. 

When Monday morning came Johnny McWilliams, who had lost 
his voice from his endeavors on the previous evening, attended the meet- 
ing of the Board of Trustees and was formally inducted into office as 
Regional Trustee for the Pacific Coast. When he took the oath, one 
of the older trustees was heard to remark: "He seems an earnest and 
conscientious young man, his voice is hoarse with emotion." 

As it appeared that our right to win our own cup was threatened 
■by the live young Class of '71, who imported a member from the State 
Insane Asylum to swell their total, we sent out a hurry call for all 
members in the vicinity of Princeton and on Tuesday morning Elroy 
Headley and Pete Morrow put in an appearance to hold our lead safe. 
The result, as has been stated above, was 155 out of 251, or 61.8%, 
while '71 was second with 21 out of 35, or 60%. Hence, at the Alumni 
Luncheon the Toastmaster once more awarded us the Cup, which we 
hal also won at our Tenth and Fifteenth, and it was President Wib's 
privilege to receive it on behalf of the Class. 

But 1901's contribution to Commencement was not solely confined 
to our Reunion. Again Graduate Singing, instituted by us in 1916, was 
held on the Steps on Friday and Saturday nights, and President Hib- 
ben at the Commencement exercises presented the 1901 Medal to Cap- 
tain Callahan, of the football team, who had been chosen by the Seniors 
as the member of that Class who had done the most for Princeton.

THE ENDOWMENT FUND COMPETITION 

This volume would not be complete without some account of the 
part played by 1901 in the Endowment Fund Drive. 

It will be remembered that the Central Endowment Fund Committee 
in organizing the campaign in the fall of 1919 practically disregarded 
the Class as an operating unit. As 1901, however, in the previous 
June had undertaken the raising of the Platt-Whiting Memorial, the 
Central Committee acquiesced in our making a separate campaign 
upon the representation that we could secure a larger amount from 
1 90 1 by a Class than by a general Alumni Campaign. 

When the general campaign opened it was handicapped by two cir- 
cumstances: (i) the announcement of the Frick bequest and (2) 
canvassing by solicitors who usually belonged to other classes than the 
men they approached. The first put the solicitor on the defensive, and 
the second practically eliminated an intimate personal appeal, as the 
prospective subscribers were frequently strangers or mere acquaintances 
of the solicitors. 

It was apparent to our Committee from the outset that the Central 
Committee, in not employing the class organizations and the idea of 
competition between classes, was overlooking two vital factors in the 
situation without which the drive bid fair to be a failure. These views 
were presented to the Central Committee, and as a result the class or- 
ganizations were urged to take an active part in the campaign and 
before the drive was completed they dominated it. 

Our Defi to the other classes was launched in December, and by 
the end of January the competition was going hammer and tongs and 
kept getting hotter and hotter until Commencement. 

What was 1901's part? The subjoined account (consisting in ex- 
tracts from The Weekly : editorials, controversial literature, and se- 
lected items from the 1901 Class notes column) will show that 1901 
consistently kept the interest alive and acted as pace maker for the 
other classes practically from January until June. But let The Weekly 
tell the tale, week by week, as it happened : 



JANUARY 7, 1920 

CLASS RIVALRY IN ENDOWMENT DRIVE 

It is earnestly hoped that the spirit of generous rivalry between the Classes 

of 1900 and 1901, as exhibited by the subjoined challenges, will be emulated by 

other classes, for the benefit of their Alma Mater. The Class of 1901 has set 

out to raise $250,000 for the Endowment Fund, of which almost $100,000 has

already been subscribed. How much 1900 intends to give is not as yet stated — 
probably they have set no limit — but the Chicago section of that Class reports 
$50,000 already subscribed, "and not stopping yet." It's a fine thing to see the 
old time campus rivalries perpetuated in this kind of generous competition for 
Princeton's advancement. When this Endowment Campaign is over, which 
Princeton class will stand out as the Greatest Class in giving to Princeton? 
That's a distinction than which there could be no greater. We print these let- 
ters in the order in which they reached us : 

New York, December 12, IQIP- 
To the Editor of 

The Alumni Weekly. 
Dear Sir: The Class of 1901 held a dinner in November at the University 
Club in New York to consider the Endowment Fund. The entire evening was 
devoted to a thorough discussion of the situation and at its conclusion 29 men 
subscribed a total of $74,800. Of this amount, only two subscriptions were in 
excess of $5,000. These were for $7,000 and $25,000, respectively. Since that 
time, and as a result of the dinner, our subscriptions have reached the sum of 

$94,445- 

We are not a wealthy class and have very few wealthy men. It was simply 
a case of everyone getting into the game and "giving till it hurts." 

We have 231 men still to be heard from and every one of them is going to 
subscribe. 
We invite any other class to equal our record. 

Yours very truly, 

Walter E. Hope, 

President, Class of 1901. 

New York, December 24, 1919. 
To the Editor, 

The Alumni Weekly, 
Dear Sir: The following is a copy of a telegram which I have received from 
Thomas W. Cloney, President of the Class of 1900. Please give it suitable pub- 
licity in the next issue. 

Very truly yours, 

Frederick P. King, 

Secretary, Class of 1900. 

"Chicago, 111., Dec. 23, 1900. 

"F. P. King, 160 Broadway, New York. 

"Chicago Nineteen Hundred section already passed fifty-thousand-dollars mark 
in Princeton Endowment Campaign and not stopping yet. Let's take good fall 
out of that fresh Nineteen-One bunch. They think they can beat all other 
classes. Let's show them times haven't changed since 1897. Merry Christmas." 

JANUARY 21, 1920 

With this issue we are enlarging our table on subscriptions by classes, so as 
to show the number and percentage of the membership of each class subscrib- 
ing to the Endowment Fund. For the percentage of a Class's membership sub- 
scribing, rather than the amount subscribed, seems the most satisfactory standard, 
as indicating a class's interest in and devotion to Princeton. There are very 
few Princeton men who cannot give something in the Endowment Drive, and 
the class that has the largest percentage of its membership on the subscription 
list will stand out at the end of the campaign as the winner of the champion- 
ship in this contest in loyalty to Princeton. 

In this generous contest, however, some line of demarkation should be drawn 
between the older and younger classes. For the younger classes, with large 
memberships, are placed at a disadvantage in competition with the oldest classes, 
whose membership tends to approach the vanishing point. In the percentage 
of membership subscribing to the Endowment Fund the Class of '46 already has 
the honor of having reached the maximum of 100 per cent, its one surviving

member having subscribed to the Fund. Next in order come the Class of '56 
with 20 per cent, one of its five surviving members having subscribed, and the 
Class of '58 with 18 per cent, the result of two subscribers in eleven members. 
We feel confident that these Princeton veterans, who rejoice with their younger 
brethren in the ever increasing growth and usefulness of their University, will 
be the first to agree that in this contest in generosity for her advancement the 
Classes that come after theirs should not be placed at a disadvantage. 

If we except the three older classes mentioned above, the Classes now lead- 
ing in percentage of subscriptions to the Endowment Fund are as follows :

The ten classes that have made the largest total subscriptions are as follows : 

'83 $618,782.50 

'03 295,415.42 

'77 291,500.00

'00 96,925.00 

'98 80,370.00 

'78 80,300.00 

It will be observed that three classes, '79, '81, and '95, have the honor of being 
in both of the foregoing lists, — that these classes are among the leaders both 
in percentage of subscribers and total subscriptions to the Endowment Fund. 

1901 HURLS BACK 1900 CHALLENGE 

Dear Mr. Editor: 

I have just read Tom Cloney's blast in your issue of last week. It certainly 
is refreshing to find some sign of life in that 1900 bunch. However, Cloney is 
dead right. Times haven't changed since 1897. We still sing "Quack, Quack, 
Quack, Quack, Naughty-Naught !" . 

Furthermore, we welcome this opportunity to re-demonsttate our superiority. 
We challenge 1900 to a contest to see which class can produce the largest per- 
centage of its membership as subscribers to the Endowment Fund. Our only 
condition is that subscriptions must be actual and bona fide and not paid for by 
some other member of the class. You see, we realize the existence of many 
"malefactors of great wealth" in 1900, and there is no telling what they might 
do, if roused. 

Yours faithfully, 

Walter E. Hope, '01. 

JANUARY 28, 1920 

The graduate classes have been put on their mettle by the announcement of 
percentage subscriptions by classes, and a spirited competition for the class 
championship is developing. Next to the Class of '46, which, with its one sur- 

147 



viving member on the subscription list, has a percentage of lOO, the Class of 
1901 now heads this honor roll, having jumped from 13.2 per cent to 20.3 per 
cent during the week. The Classes of '56 and '86 are tied for second place, and 
the young Class of '13, with its large membership, has the distinction of holding 
fourth place. Two other of the younger and larger classes, '04 and '14, have 
broken into the list of the first ten classes in this competition in generosity. 
The honor roll of the first ten classes (excepting, of course, the 100 per cent 
Class of '46) is at present as follows:

"HATS OFF, FRESHMEN !" 

Annapolis, Md., January 18, 1920. 
To the Editor of 

The Alumni Weekly, 

Sir: I read with amusement and delight the telegram from Mr. Thomas W. 
Cloney of the Class of 1900 to his Class Secretary in your recent issue, in 
which he recounts the generous achievements in behalf of the Endowment Fund 
on the part of the Chicago contingent of that band of Philistines, who a 
little over a score of years ago invaded Princeton, and all but arrested the 
Progress of Enlightenment in our beloved University, had not the Gracious and 
Watchful Providence, which has ever attended our Alma Mater in her crucial 
moments, ordered that the succeeding Class should be so markedly the Apostles 
of Culture, whose fine spirit of sweetness and light ("splendid phrase of Mat- 
thew Arnold" — T. W. Hunt) has proved an effective antidote to the crass 
muscularism of the said Sons of Goliath. 

Far be it from me to belittle one iota this splendid gift of these men of Nine- 
teen Hundred. But when Mr. Cloney desires to show the world that as re- 
gards his Class and mine times have not changed since 1897, permit me to 
observe that "very obviously" (cf. Prof. Daniels' lectures in Pol. Econ.) he is 
in error. Times have radically changed. For to the members of the Class of 
1901, whose pronounced aptitudes for Light and Learning were past all un- 
derstanding to these aforesaid Children of Darkness, and provoked them in 
their blindness to a campaign of ruthless oppression, the principal occupation 

148 



of the Class of 1900 in 1897 was to march in marauding gangs down Uni- 
versity Place by night, clad in blatant jerseys and helmeted with fantastic 
horse-hats, and to interrupt our instinctive and habitual pursuit of knowledge 
with their raucous cries, "Put that light out, Freshman," — a most symbolic 
slogan, forsooth. Little did we dare to hope or dream in those dark days that 
the high-minded devotion of igoi would ever penetrate the pachydermous per- 
sons of those mighty men who were to us the terror by night and the destruction 
that wasted our time at noonday; and that the day would dawn when we might 
be effectively provoking them to good works for Princeton. Hence our de- 
light at the unwitting testimony of Mr. Cloney's telegram. 

May the good work go on ! If these regenerated Philistines will gird up their 
loins and go down in their pockets to bring forth more money for the Endow- 
ment Fund than we of 1901 can produce, again, as in 1897, but with much more 
grace in our hearts, will we who were Freshmen then "take off our hats" to 
those who were Sophomores then, and salute the men of 1900 with our congratu- 
lations, and with the sweet satisfaction of feehng that we have not lived in 
vain. 

And incidentally, this reclamation of Nineteen Hundred makes us hopeful for 
the Class of 1902. Did I hear you say anything, Mr. Barron? 

F. L. Janeway 1901. 

FEBRUARY 4, 1920 

In the competition between the classes, 1901 managed by a slight margin to 
maintain its advantage in the percentage of subscribers. The Class of 1909 
leaped into the limelight with a big increase in the number of its subscribers 
and is pushing 1901 hard for first honors. The week's leaders in the percentage 
of subscribers are as follows :

In addition to '09, the Class of '10 made a big spurt and again got on the honor 
roll. 

In the competition for the largest total subscription, the Class of '77 jumped 
into second place during the week, by passing the Class of '03. The Class of 
'83 is still far in the lead in this list, the first ten classes being as follows : 

'83 $618,782.50 

'77 333,050.00

The Class of '91 is on this roll of honor for the first time. '81 and '01 con- 
tinue to be the only classes having the distinction of being on both lists.

looi COMMENT 

The Class of Blankety-blank, which in the fall of '97 we put in its place by 
vanquishing it in the rush and in the baseball game by the score of 12-7, have 
agreeably surprised us by accepting our challenge to produce more subscribers 
than 1901 for the Endowment Fund. Be sure your own subscription is in and 
watch our percentage column on another page grow. If you want an easy 
way to increase your subscription to the Endowment Fund, make a side bet on 
the resnlt with any 1900 man you know. 

That the New England District has to date led the other districts in the per- 
centage of quota raised is undoubtedly due to the fact that the sister states of 
Vermant and New Hampshire have George Allen '01 and Jim Jameson '01, 
respectively, as Chairmen. 

Gal Fentress and Bob Rice have already obtained subscriptions from thir- 
teen out of the fifteen men in the Chicago District. The other two have mighty 
little chance of escape. 

The 1901 Pittsburgh delegation does not concur in the awarding of any medals 
to the 1901 Chicago delegation for obtaining subscriptions from 13 out of 15 
men in that District for the Endowment Fund. Bob Sutton and Sam Hamilton 
have obtained subscriptions from 14 out of 15 men in the Pittsburgh District, 
and would have obtained 100 percent if the fifteenth man had not been sick. 
The Secretary makes no pretense of being a Daniel(s) come to judgment and 
so does not wish to reverse the Board of Awards, but suggests that it is up to 
both delegations to secure lOo per cent. 

FEBRUARY 11, 1920 

It is evident that class spirit has not as yet been thoroughly aroused in this 
campaign. Except for the Class of '46, whose one surviving member has given 
his class a 100 per cent subscription, the largest percentage of subscribing mem- 
bers reported by any class is less than one-third of the total membership. Here 
is an opportunity for the classes to show their loyalty to Princeton and at the 
same time win glory for themselves. The Class of '01 maintains the lead in 
this competition with '09 still in second place. The latter class has the distinc- 
tion of having the largest number of subscribers to the fund — ninety-nine. The 
Glasses of '12 and '15 have come up among the leaders and '79 and '95 are 
again on this honor roll. The leading classes for the week are as follows :

subscriptions. Four classes are on both of these rolls of honor,— '79, '81, '95, 
and '01. 

ENDOWMENT CAMPAIGN NOTES 

How the Class of 1901 is maintaining its leadership in the percentage of mem- 
bers subscribing to the Endowment Fund is illustrated in a circular just sent 
to that Class by the 1901 Memorial Committee. Here are some excerpts from 
the circular : 

"We stand for the following principle : Participation by every alumnus in the 
future of Princeton. The first step toward the accomplishment of this pro- 
gram is an expression of confidence: Some subscription, no matter how small, 
to the Endowment Fund." 

"The faculty situation is immediate and pressing, and must be taken care of 
by the first contributions received from the Endowment Fund." 

"When the Frick bequest becomes available, the fund now subscribed by the 
alumni will be released for the development of that part of the program of the 
Endowment Committee, to which the Frick bequest is not legally applicable." 

"To meet her minimum needs Princeton requires at least $12,000,000 in addi- 
tion to what may be realized from the Frick bequest. This means an average of 
$1,000 per man from the 12,000 living alumni, and fully justifies the objective 
for the Class of 1901 (with 265 living members) of $250,000." 

"The principle of 'participation by every alumnus in the future of Princeton,' 
for which we stand, makes our percentage objective— 100. This means some 
subscription, no matter how small, from each one of our 265 living members. 
The principle of the 'widow's mite' coupled with the power behind a 'united 
front' is what Princeton's future depends on." 

"Please insure a 100 percent participation by 1901 by subscribing something 
immediately. Make this subscription as liberal as you can, bearing in mind that 
you have five years to pay and can deduct the amount paid each year (up to 
15 percent) from your net income in calculating your income tax. 

"Don't forget that coupled with the joy of serving Princeton, we are per- 
petuating the memory of those who gave their Hves for their country— Edward 
Cuthbert Piatt and Robert Rudd Whiting." 

FEBRUARY 18, 1920 

A correspondent in last week's issue raised the question, "Which is the finest 
class that ever entered Princeton?" That question could be discussed from sev- 
eral points of view, but from the standpoint of loyalty to Princeton, this En- 
dowment Campaign is applying the acid test. The classes which are emerging 
conspicuously as our best from that significant standpoint are shown m the 
tables we are printing each week. In this week's lists five classes win the double 
distinction of being on the honor roll of percentage of membership subscribing 
and the honor roll of largest total subscriptions. The classes that stand out so 
conspicuously for their loyalty to Princeton are '79, '81, '95, '01, and '04. 

In percentage of membership subscribing the Class of '01 is holdmg its 
leading place with a steady increase each week. This enthusiastic, well organ- 
ized class is going to be hard to beat in this competition, but there are several 
other classes hot on the trail of '01, and it's a long-distance race with several 
laps ahead before the finish. The Classes of '81 and '04 rounded the turn this 

151 



week in second and third places, respectively, and passed '09, which held second 
place last week. The Class of '88 made a spurt this week and came up among 
the leaders. The summary:

1901 COMMENT 

Pittsburgh now has a clear lead in the 1901 championship race, 15 men having 
subscribed out of 15. 

One energetic citizen from Chicago asks if it will count as two subscriptions 
if he doubles his. The Secretary is inclined to think on a strictly intra-1901 
basis that this ought to count as two subscriptions, and Chicago may accordingly 
go over 100 percent.

In percentage of class membership subscribing to the Endowment Fund, the 
Class of '01 continues at the top of this Roll of Honor (except for the 100 per 
cent Class of '46). The Class of '01 now has 47.7 per cen of its members on 
the subscription list, — nearly half the class membership. This Class not only- 
leads in percentage, it also has the largest number of subscribers, 127. With 
twenty-six new subscriptions for the week, the Class of '15 jumped from tenth 
to fourth place on the list of leaders, and '79 got back on the Honor Roll, '81 
and '07 being crowded off, — temporarily, we trust. The week's list of leaders

continues in the lead by a wide margin in total subscriptions. During the week

ATTENTION, CLASS OF 1900 

New York, Feb. 24, 1920. 
Editor, The Alumni Weekly, 

Dear Sir. : In the January 7th number of The Weekly you published a 
telegram from one Thomas W. Cloney, accepting, on behalf of the Class of '00, 
a challenge to produce more subscribers for the Endowment Fund than the 
Class of '01. We received the defy from 1900 with enthusiasm. We advertised 
it widely. We offered our subscribers the inducement of beating 1900. We 

153 



also anticipated increasing our subscriptions by wagers with the members of 
1900 on the resuh, a sure way of separating reluctant dollars from that Class, 
an expectation, alas, not to be realized, since individually they refuse to par- 
ticipate in such transactions. What now is the situation? — a large, opaque sil- 
ence from the direction of 1900 which has occupied several weeks. We are be- 
ginning to suspect that we have been deceived. We look in vain for the 
Oughty-ought numerals upon any of the contestants hot on our trail. 

Charity and our earnest wish for the success of the Endowment Campaign 
compel us to hope that 1900 "is not dead, but sleepeth." Can you not help in 
its awakening? 

Very sincerely, 

Clarence D. Kerr, 
Secretary, Class of 1901. 

1901 COMMENT 

Query: Where, Oh Where is 1900? Please page 1900 and tell them they are 
wanted near the head of the percentage column on the first page of The Weekly. 

Kansas City, with a 1901 population of three, reports 100 per cent, with an 
average of $1,000 per subscription. 

MARCH 10, 1920 

In the competition between the graduate classes, the outstanding event of the 
week was the passing of the Class of '01 by the Classes of '59 and '06, for the 
leadership in percentage of subscribers. In the case of the veteran Class of 
'59, this was accomplished by simply adding one new subscriber, making four 
from its living membership of seven, giving that Class a percentage of 57.1. 
The Class of '06, however, with a membership of 336, came from far behind 
and leaped into first place among the classes having any considerable number 
of members. This leap to leadership was achieved by turning in eighty-six 
new subscribers, nearly double the number previously reported from '06. This 
gave that Class a percentage of 51.7, barely sufficient to pass '01, which had in- 
creased its percentage to 50.1. We may expect a lively contest for first place 
between these two classes during the ensuing weeks. And it is open to any 
other class to do what '06 has done. The Classes of '14 and '16 also got on the 
honor roll this week, and '95 advanced from seventh to fifth place. The leaders 
in percentage of subscribers are as follows :

to $130,770, — a jump of $52,500.

Keep your eye on this column, and if the metropolis to which you lend dis- 
tinction is not at the top of the list, go out and build a fire under your class- 
mates who haven't subscribed. You will note the premier position of Engle- 
wood, with 4 subscriptions out of a possible 3. That means that we have landed 
a subscription from a non-Princeton man who promises to send his grandsons 
to Princeton. "Go thou and do likewise." (Well! Take it that way if you 
want to, but get both the subscriptions and grandsons. We insist on the sub- 
scription first!)

In the competition between the classes for highest percentage of subscribers, 
the Class of '06 held the lead it gained last week over '01, which had been at the 
head of the procession of classes having a considerable membership. The 
Class of '95 again increased its percentage and jumped to third place, and the

1906, BEWARE! 

New York, March 10, 1920. 
To the Editor of 

The Alumni Weekly : 
Dear Sir: 1901 congratulates 1906 upon its achievement in landing as near 
the head of the procession as the vigorous young classes of '46 and '59 permit. 
Fine work ! But we give 1906 due warning that only those equipped with 
seven-leagued boots will be able to stay out in front of us. If 1906 can do that, 
it v/ill be proof positive that theirs is a very wonderful Class. Go to it, 1906! 

Sincerely, 

Clarence D. Kerr, 

Secretary, 1901.

During the past week pinch hitting by Eddie Casebolt has enabled Newark to 
pass the midway and take a long lead toward the ^ station. 

MARCH 24, 1920 

In the competition between the classes for highest percentage of membership 
subscribing to the Endowment Fund, the Class of '06 continues to hold its 
lead over '01 by a scant margin, and three other classes, '15, '95, and '04, are 
pressing the leaders. The Class of '15 jumped from fifth to third place and 
passed '95 and '04; '12 went ahead of '13 and '16 passed '14 and '86. The 
week's standing is as follows :

The Class of '04 again got on both honor rolls, and now shares that distinc- 
tion with '95 and '01. The ten classes which have made the largest subscriptions 
to date are as follows : 

'83 $631,357-50

MARCH 31, 1920 

It was almost necessary to call in an expert accountant to determine whether 
'01 or '06 was ahead this week in the competition between the classes for highest 
percentage of members subscribing to the Endowment Fund. These leading 
classes are running neck and neck, but '06 is still ahead by the extremely nar- 
row margin of one-fiftieth of one percent. "Take it from me," said an en- 
thusiastic '01 worker, "We'll lead 'em next week." Meantime, keep your eye 
on '95 and '04. They both passed '15 this week and are hot on the trail of the 
leaders. Observe also the race for place between '12 and '13, — the latter jumped 
ahead during the week, and now leads '12 by considerably less than a nose, — to 
be exact, by one-thousandth of one percent. The week's standing is as follows :

APRIL 7, 1920 

During the week the Class of '01 regained first place (among the classes hav- 
ing a considerable membership) in percentage of members subscribing to the 
Endowment Fund. This displaced from the leadership the Class of '06, which 
was also passed by the Classes of '95 and '04, which went into second and third 
place, respectively. Though back in the lead, '01 holds that position of honor 
over '95 by less than 2 per cent and will have to keep going strong to prevent 
the 25th-year class from surging to the head of the honor roll.

'96. Their spurt displaced 1900 and '04 on the list of the ten largest givers. 
For the first time '01 passed 1900 in this roll of distinction, and the latter will 
have to get busy if it hopes to stay in the race. '95 and '01 are the only classes 
on both rolls this week. The first ten classes in total subscriptions are as fol-

When the 1901 League of Notions spent a whole evening last Commencement 
making Trenton Safe for Humanity, no one ever anticipated that this lament- 
ably would result in making those dwelling in Trenton feel safe from the En- 
dowment Fund drive. 

APRIL 14, 1920 

With the effort from now till Commencement concentrated on obtaining a 
100 per cent subscription from the alumni body, the competition between the 
classes should be more spirited than heretofore. Instead of only a few classes, 
and those almost always the same classes, competing for leadership, many of 
the other classes that have hitherto lagged behind should get into the running 
for the first honors. Eight classes have now reported subscriptions from more 
than so per cent of their membership. The Class of '01 is the first to pass the 
60 per cent mark — except, of course, the 100 per cent Class of '46. The Class 
of '99 got on this honor roll for the first time this week. The standing for the 
week is as follows :

in percentage of membership giving. The week's honor roll in total subscrip- 
tions is as follows :

Just because the 1901 flag is showing in front, and there are mighty iew mem- 
bers of the Class left who haven't subscribed, is no reason why you shouldn't 
keep up the hunt for non-subscribers and let 'em have both barrels on sight.

It will be observed that of the classes having a considerable membership, the 
three leading classes in percentage of members subscribing to the Endowment 
Fund, '01, '95, and '04, are also the only classes which continue to havve the 
distinction of being on both these rolls of honor. While the Class of '01 con- 
tinues to lead in percentage of subscribers, it is holding its primacy by the 
narrow margin of i per cent over the Class of '95, and the order may be re- 
versed at any time. 



HEY THERE, YE GOLDEN NINETIES ! 
Will you let these youngsters show you up? 
Editor of the Alumni Weekly, 

Dear Sir : Sometime ago the Golden Nineties claimed they could show us 
all up on the endowment records. In the amount of money raised they cer- 
tainly are doing well; but look at The Alumni Weekly for April 7th, and what 
do you see in the tables of the ten best percentages? 
From the Nineties, i class. 
From the Oughties, 4 classes. 
From the Teens, 5 classes.

As shown by the first table on this page, the vigorous young Class of '95 has 
performed the exhilarating feat of ousting the illustrious Class of '01 from first 
place in the percentage of subscribers to the Endowment Fund. With 65.6 per 
cent of its membership on the subscription list, '95 now leads the former leaders 
by 1.2 per cent. This is too narrow a margin for safety or for boasting, but the 
new leaders are out to "bring home the bacon" at their 25th Reunion in June, 
and the class that aspires to take it away from the midway representatives of 
the Golden Nineties will have to do some tall hustling. It will be observed 
also that the Class of '95 increased its total subscription during the week by 
more than $100,000. Its total subscription of $274,181 represents an average of 
over $l8oo from the 149 members who have thus far given to the Fund. The 
Classes of '86 and '99 regained places on the percentage honor roll, which under- 
went several changes. Some of these were due to the correction of the class 
rolls by the Endowment Committee, as explained on another page. The Classes 
of '95, '01 and '04 continue to have the distinction of being on both honor rolls.

You can't keep a good class down. More than once the Class of '01 have 
proved that during this Endowment Fund Campaign. Ousted from the per- 
centage leadership last week by the Class of '95, '01 came back strong this week 
and regained first place. They hold their exalted position by the narrowest of 
narrow margins, but they are busy all the time and the class that takes it away 
from '01 will have to be busier. The two leaders now have close to 70 per cent 
of their members on the subscription list, and two other classes, '06 and '09, have 
over 60 per cent. The latter has the largest number of subscribers of any class. 
'09 will bear watching. The Class of '81 regained a place on the honor roll, 
and our youngest alumni, '19, jumped to sixth place. In total subscriptions '91 
passed '04. '95, '01, and '04 continue to be the only classes on both honor rolls.

The Class of '95 once more took the lead from '01 during the week, and '09 
passed '06 for third place. '81 jumped above '04 and '19, and '11 got on the 
Honor Roll for the first time, displacing '99. In the total subscription list 1900 
regained a place, crowding '91 off. '95, '01 and '04 are still the only classes on 
both Honor Rolls. 

YOUNGER CLASSES OUTDO OLDER CLASSES 
To the Editor of 

The Alumni Weekly : 
A study of the figures in the Endowment Drive makes it fairly evident that 
the good-natured thrust of Mr. Laurence G. Payson, Secretary of 1916, in a re- 
cent number of The Weekly is more than justified. Up to date, the younger 
classes have put it all over the older classes in this Drive. 

One of the notable features of the Campaign has been the showing made by 
the ten youngest classes. With one exception, they have well over 40 per cent 
of their membership enrolled as subscribers. And not the least remarkable 
thing is the amounts they have subscribed. The Classes of 1916 and 1917, four 
and three years out of college respectively, have each subscribed well over 
$100,000. And the Classes of 1915 and 1912 are close upon their heels. 

With but few exceptions, the Seventies and Eighties make a lamentable show- 
ing in comparison with their younger brethren. In the Seventies, eight out of 
the ten classes, and. in the Eighties, seven out of the ten classes, have less than 
40 per cent of their membership subscribed. (Figures taken from the report of 
April 30th.) The Class of '80 has 20.8 per cent of its membership subscribed 
with a total of $14,160. The Class of '82 has 36.8 per cent of its membership 
subscribed with a total of $17,586. 

Some of the totals do not quite indicate the actual conditions. Thus the Class 
of '83 leads in amount subscribed with a total of $633,560. But it appears that 
three of these subscriptions total $615,000, so that the balance of the Class has 
subscribed $18,650, this amount having been received from less than 30 per cent 

163 



of the class membership. Again, the Class of '87 is third in amount subscribed 
with a total of $298,920. But of this amount four subscriptions total $285,000, 
so that the amount subscribed by the remainder of the Class is $13,920, which 
was received from less than 25 per cent of the class membership. These totals 
are splendid but they do not reflect much credit on the remainder of the Class. 

When we come to the Nineties, the showing is somewhat better, notably the 
fine record made by the Class of '95. But even here there are five out of ten 
classes which have less than 40 per cent of their membership upon the sub- 
scription roll. The fine Class of '97 has only 92 subscribers or 36.8 per cent of 
its membership. 

In the decade from 1900 to 1909 only two classes have less than 40 per cent 
of their membership subscribed. 

A summary of the records by decades will show the comparison : 

NO. OF MEN NO. OF PER CENT OF 

IN CLASSES SUBSCRIBERS SUBSCRIBERS 

1870 to 1879 660 206 29.5 

1880 to 1889 looi 360 35.9 

1890 to 1899 2139 914 42.2 

1900 to 1909 3252 1648 50.7 

1910 to 1919 3680 1648 44.26 

The foregoing figures speak for themselves. The leaders among the alumni 
should be found in the classes from 1870 to 1890. It seems almost incredible that 
out of 1661 men in those classes only 566 have subscribed. The answer must 
be that many of the remaining members cannot have been properly approached. 

Yours very truly, 

Alumnus. 
(Walter E. Hope.) 

1901 COMMENT 
These '95 chaps do take a lot of beating. Here we go out and get fifteen 
new subscriptions and give ourselves a considerable hoist up the percentage 
ladder, and when we are getting our breath to congratulate ourselves on our 
singularly fine performance we are conscious of a hard breathing party trying 
to crowd onto the rung we occupy. It's that pushing class of '95 again, just 
when we want to be all by ourselves ! 

So here's where we get busy again, and we won't feel safe until we are 
seated on the roof with '46, watching the others scrambling up. Come on now 
1901 ! All together !

The Class of '01 again took first place in the percentage competition of the 
Endowment Fund Campaign, with the excellent record of 75.2 per cent. '95, in 
second place, also increased its percentage to 74.5 per cent. Three other classes, 
'09, '06, and '81, have over 60 per cent, and '17 got on the Honor Roll for the 
first time, with 53.4 per cent. 



1901 COMMENT 
The Intra-1901 Competition having become mainly the recitation of the super- 
patriotism of certain sections of the country, such as Englewood and Hagers- 
town, the weekly report will consist hereafter in an Honor Roll and a Deficit 
List. The Deficit List will show by districts the number of percentage of mem- 
bers of the Class who have failed to subscribe.

In the competition between the classes for highest percentage of membership 
on the subscription list, '01 continues to lead and four classes now have over 
70%, — '01, '95, '09, and '06. Two of these, '01 and '95, are nearing 80%, The 
Class of '98 jumped into the lime-light this week by turning in forty -two new 
subscribers, which placed this class on the Honor Roll, in fifth place. This dis- 
placed '17 among the first ten. In addition to the ten leaders, twelve classes now 
have 50% or more of their members on the subscription list. These twelve are 
'82, '86, '91, '99, '02, '03, '05, '07, '10, '15, '16, and '17. Slightly over 60% of the 
whole body of the alumni have now subscribed to the Endowment Fund. 

1901 COMMENT 

'95 is making a noise which sounds like "It's all over but the showing," forget- 
ful of the fact that whenever Princeton is at one or both ends of a competition a 
victory is never assured until the last man is out in the ninth, or until the referee's 
whistle blows at the end of the game. Whatever the outcome, 1901 recognizes 
that the winner of this contest must be that Class whose members have respondel 
with substantially a 100 percent subscription. 

Meanwhile, though we point with pride to our Honor Roll and congratulate 
Western Pennsylvania and the Middle, as well as the Wild and Woolly, West on 
their remarkable 100 percent achievement, we are conscious that our Deficit List 
of 57 men is unduly large. 57 varieties of deficits ! But we hope for some 
eleventh-hour conversions to change our deficits to assets. Come on, you 57 ! 
Climb up to the Honor Roll by sending in your subscriptions now.

The competition between the classes for the highest percentage of subscribers 
to the Endowment Fund waxes warmer as the campaign draws to a close. The 
Class of '95 again took the lead from '01 this week but it is still a close race; 
any one of five or six classes may win. Among the five leaders there is a differ- 
ence of less than 5 percent. Three of them, '95, '01, and '06, have over 80 percent, 
and '09 and '98 are close to that excellent record. AH but one class on the Honor 
Roll now have over 60 percent, and in addition to the ten leaders nineteen classes 
have over 50 percent. 



1901 COMMENT 

The Deficit List is being steadily reduced, but we'll have to speed it up if we 
are going to wipe it out before Commencement. If you are hesitating about the 
amount you ought to give, remember what Job Hedges said : "A man's generosity 
is measured not by how much he gives, but by how much he has left." 

1901's 100 percent participation in the Endowment Fund is an objective that 
the Class is determined to achieve. That is the spirit in which a classmate wrote 
the following letter : "I am today sending a contribution for the Endowment 
Fund, and desire to assure you my delay is for one cause only, the smallness of 
the gift. I congratulate many of the rest of you, who have more to give, on your 

167 



generosity and the success of your solicitations. Please measure my loyalty, not 
by the size of my check, but by the wish it might rival the large ones. It is gen- 
uinely embarrassing to give little as I can only do, but teaching here is about as 
poorly paid as in Princeton. Besides, my family of children are growing into 
expense. Please consider this no complaint, but if the size of my contribution is 
discouraging to a faithful solicitor like you, be cheered by my loyalty to class and 
college and accept my best wishes." Will any man admit that he will not do as 
much for Princeton and 1901 ?

It is going to take miglity close to ioo% to win the competition among the 
classes for the highest percentage of subscribers. The leaders on the Honor 
Roll are now bunched between 80% and 90%, and they are all set for Garrison 
finish. Forced into second place last week, the irrepressible Class of '01 once 
more forged to the fore. '09 jumped into second place and '98 into third. In 
their spurt for the finish all three of these classes passed '95, last week's leaders. 

The highest praise, as it seems to The Weekly, should go to the classes which 
hold places on both Honor Rolls. The only classes which have this double 
distinction are '95, '01, and '04, — and these three classes have held their places on 
both Honor Rolls for several weeks. 

COMMENCEMENT 

'98 FIRST IN CLASS PERCENTAGE COMPETITION 
Hats off to the Class of '98! A month before Commencement they weren't 
even on the Honor Roll, but they came from behind, passed all competitors, and 
finished with the maximum subscription of 100 percent. No other Class but '46, 
with one surviving member, equalled that record. This remarkable feat was ac- 
complished through the leadership of Roswell F. Easton, who conducted the 
endowment canvass of his Class, and who has proved as capable in that respect as 
he used to be on the varsity nine. Alumni of the Golden Nineties will never 
forget the day "Rozzy" Easton struck out sixteen Yale batters when there 
wasn't any foul-strike rule, and shut Yale out 13-0. Only twenty-nine Yale 
men came to bat in the whole nine innings. Twenty-seven of them had to, 
to make it a game. Neither of the two extras got to second. That was a 
record, — but this 100 percent achievement in the Endowment Campaign is a 
still better record. To accomplish it Mr. Easton gave a lot of time and hard 
work. He travelled over the country signing up his classmates till he got the 
last one. 

The Classes of '01 and '95, which had alternated in leading the procession 
until '98 loomed up as the dark horse, finished neck and neck, the former taking 
second place from the latter by seven-tenths of a point. '01 got all but seven 
of its members in the subscription list, and '95 all but eight, 'oi's percentage 
being 97.1, and '95's, 96.4 . '06 finished fourth with 96.1 percent and '09 fifth 
with 91.8 percent. In total subscriptions '83 held its lead by a wide margin, this 
Class turning in a grand total of $673,904. In the last week of the competition, 
by increasing its total by over $100,000, '96 climbed to sixth place on this Honor 
Roll. The only Classes which continued to hold places on both Honor Rolls 
were '95, '01, and '04, a double distinction which reflects the greatest credit 
on these loyal Clasess. The final standing of the leading Classes is shovm in 
the following tables :

1901 COMMENT 

Hail '46 and '98! The last week of 1901's Endowment Fund Campaign was 
most interesting and exciting. Ollie Badgley and Bob Elmore cabled their sub- 
scriptions from Tiflis, Caucasus, and Valparaiso, Chile, respectively. Ralph 
Lemcke's arrived from the Republican National Convention. Bartlett's and 
Thomas's came in from California, making the Pacific Coast 100 percent pure. 
Pen Adamson, Allan Brown, J. V. Findlay, John Harvey, Austin Leake, Howard 
Pancoast, Ralph Thompson, Katy Schwarz, W. G. Young, F. G. Bamman, Tio 
Bunting, Gil Casselberry and Ben Mitchell all contributed during the last few 
days to swell our total, so that at the present writing there are only 7 men out 
of 251 who have not yet subscribed. And ye have not yet given up hope that we 
will get them all in. 

Altogether our record is one of which we can be very proud. We are only 
sorry that we do not stand shoulder to shoulder with '46 and '98, to whose re- 
markable 100 percent achievement we take off our hats. Let no one think that 
we begrudge these classes their justly earned laurels. Far from it. Our only 
regret is that 1901 and many other classes as well cannot present themselves to 
the world as examples of 100 percent loyalty to Princeton.

THE REUNION TROPHY 

This cup was given during 191 1 by the Class of 1901 "as a perpetual 
trophy of college loyalty and class spirit." It is awarded annually to 
the Class having the largest percentage of its living membership in 
attendance at Commencement and each winning Class has its name 
engraved upon the cup. 

The idea was first suggested at the Decennial Reunion of the Class 
in June 191 1, when 165 men attended out of a possible 268, thereby 
breaking all Decennial Records, and the cup was given in commemora- 
tion of that fact. Before it was definitely decided upon, however, the 
proposed plan was submitted to the Secretaries of all Classes from 
1875 to 191 1 and to various other prominent Princetonians, and the 
replies received were practically unanimous in approval. 

The object of the cup is to stir up competition among the various 
classes and to furnish an additional incentive which class officers and 
reunion committees may use to get their nem back. Inasmuch as the 
cup is awarded for percentage of membership in attendance, it has 
been found that older classes are at no disadvantage with younger and 
larger classes. 

The real reason for the cup is based upon the belief, born of gen- 
eral experience to which exceptions are fortunately few, that both 
the University and its Alumni derive benefit from the renewal of 
associations and the reawakening of loyalty and enthusiasm for which 
Princeton Reunions are unique. Princeton is peculiarly dependent 
upon her alumni and everything which tends, directly or indirectly, to 
keep the Alumni in closer touch with the University and intensify their 
interest, will, it is believed, prove of benefit to the University. Exper- 
ience has demonstrated that the competitions for the cup have given 
an added stimulus to the general interest in the stated reunions of the 
various classes. 

Since its presentation in 191 1, the cup has been won as follows: 

June 191 1, won by the Class of 1901, with an attendance of 165 out 
of a possible 268, of 61.5%. 

June 1912, won by the Class of '82, with an attendance of 53 out of 

a possible 90, of 58.8%. 

June 1913, won by the Class of '88, with an attendance of ']i out of 
a possible 107, of 68.2%. 

June 1914, won by the Class of '69, with an attendance of 22. out of 
a possible 31, of 70.7%. 

June 191 5, won by the Class of '60, with an attendance of 15 out of 
a possible 24, or 623^%. 

171 



June 1916, tie between the Class of '66, with an attendance of 18 out 
of a possible 27, or 66^%, and the Class of 1901, with an attendance 
of 182 out of a possible 273, or 66%%. 

June 1919, won by the Class of '69, with an attendance of 18 out of 
a possible 25, or '72.^/0. 

June 1920, won by the Class of '95, with an attendance of 163 out 
of a possible 226, or 72.1%. 

June 1921, won by the Class of 1901, with an attendance of 155 out 
of a possible 251, or 61.75%. 

The rules and regulations governing the competition for the cup are 
as follows : 

Rules and Regulations 

I. The cup is presented as a perpetual trophy for annual competi- 
tion among the Classes of Princeton University. All Classes may 
compete for it, irrespective of date of graduation or size of member- 
ship. 

II. The cup shall annually be awarded to that Class which shall 
have the largest percentage of its living membership in attendance at 
Commencement. This percentage shall be determined by dividing the 
number of members in actual attendance by the number of living Class 
members. The living Class membership shall be taken as that given 
in the most recently published Directory of Living Alumni, and shall 
include non-graduates as well as graduates ; provided that proof shall 
be permitted of the death of any member or members since the publi- 
cation of of the last Directory, and provided further that any Class 
graduated since the publication of the most recent Directory of 
Living Alumni shall be permitted to file with the Committee here- 
inafter mentioned a list of its members, certified by its Secretary, which 
list shall be accepted as the membership of that Class until the publica- 
tion of the next Directory. 

III. For the purposes of this competition, attendance at Commence- 
ment shall be taken to mean actual personal presence in Princeton at 
any time between the hours of 12 noon on the Saturday preceding 
Commencement and 12 noon of Commencement Day. 

IV. The award of the cup shall be determined by a Committee of 
Judges consisting of the incumbents for the time being of the offices 
of Chairman of the Graduate Council, Secretary of the Alumni and 
Editor of the Alumni Weekly. In the event of the inability of any 
one of these gentlemen to serve in any year, he shall have the power to 
designate a substitute to act in his place with the same powers. The 
Committee may act by a majority of its number and its decision upon 
the award of the cup shall be final. 

V. Not later than one o'clock p. m. on Commencement Day, any 
Class desiring to compete for the cup shall file with the Committee or

any of its members, a list, duly certified by its Class Secretary, of 
the members of the Class in attendance at that Commencement, to- 
gether with the number of its living membership as given in the last 
Directory of Living Alumni (unless modified as provided in Rule II) 
and the percentage of living membership in attendance. The Com- 
mittee shall then proceed to award the cup to the Class having the 
largest percentage of its living membership in attendance, and an- 
nouncement of the award shall be made, if possible at the Alumni 
Luncheon, and, in any event, in the Alumni Weekly published after 
Commencement. The Committee shall have the right to call for any 
and all such further information as it may require in the proper deter- 
mination of the award. 

VI. Each Class winning the cup shall be entitled to have engraved 
thereon the name of the Class, the date of the Commencement, the 
number of members in attendance and the percentage of living mem- 
bership. The engraving shall be done under the supervision of and at 
the expense of the Class of 1901. The cup shall be preserved on ex- 
hibition in some public place in Princeton; provided, however, that 
with the consent of the Executive Committee of the Class of 1901 the 
cup may be permitted to be removed for temporary periods by the Class 
winning it at the Commencement last past and, in such event, said 
Class shall be responsible for its safe keeping and its safe return. 

VII. The Class of 1901 reserves the right through its Executive 
Committee to alter or amend these rules should necessity arise, and 
due notice of any such alterations or amendments will be published in 
the Alumni Weekly. 



173 



THE 1901 MEDAL 

In the spring of 1920 the Class founded the 1901 Medal, to be 
awarded each year to that Member of the Senior Class who, in the 
judgment of his classmates has "done most for Princeton." The pur- 
pose of the gift is to give substantial recognition to that man who has 
received this singularly fine tribute from his class, with the expectation 
that the same qualities which have merited such recognition will prove 
of worth hereafter in Princeton's and the nation's service. 

The medal is presented at the Commencement Exercises by the 
President of the University, and the members of the last two Senior 
Classes who have received it are : 

Robert Maurice Trimble, Jr., 1920, 
Henry A. Callahan, 1921. 

In addition the medal is also utilized by the Class to reward distin- 
guished Service to Princeton, and in June 192 1 the medal was pre- 
sented to J. Duncan Spaeth, Professor of English and Coach of the 
Crews, in appreciation of his service to Princeton. At our Class 
Dinner in June the medal was also presented to Walter Hope, as the 
man in 1901 who had done most for Princeton, an award in recognition, 
not of hoped for services, but of more than twenty years of unremitting 
effort, proven worth and notable achievement for Princeton.

REUNION ATTENDANCE 

Upon the pages immediately following is reproduced the record of 
attendance in June and at the annual midwinter reunion dinners in 
New York City. No attendance record was kept at the second reunion 
in June 1903, but that of the other nineteen June reunions and twenty 
midwinter dinners in New York are completely set out. Some errors 
have occurred in transcription, but in the main the record is correct. 
For attendance at these forty occasions three men — Hope, Kerr and 
McLean have a record of 100 per cent (Jim being given a rebate on 
his three absences when in service). 

The record also shows that in addition twenty men — Benson, Bern- 
hard, Black, Bruyere, Carter, Casebolt, Childs, Cornell, Crawford, 
E. L., Dickinson, L. M., Fort, Hall, Jones, P., Kinne, Little, H., Mein- 
ken, Phelan, Robbins, C. R., Swain and Walton — have attended all of 
the regular June Reunions, ist, 3rd, 5th, 7th, loth, 15th and 20th, and 
also the Extra Dividend Reunion at our Eighteenth.

THE 1901 FUND 

This Fund was instituted in 1905 by Frank Huyler and the mem- 
bers of the Class have contributed to it when it has required replen- 
ishment. Briefly, its purpose has been to place at the disposal of the 
Secretary funds with which, in case of sudden emergency, he might 
be prepared to lend assistance to members of the Class in cases of 
urgent need. Its usefulness in the past has been strikingly exemplified. 

On May i, 1921, P. T. Bruyere reported on the Fund as follows: 

July, 191 6, Received from W. E. Hope, Secretary $191.37 

Interest 20.58
